I have (obviously). Once it's setup, it's great IMHO.

If I don't get it to work (because users are computer illiterate and/or
they're behind a router), then I'll send them a PCHelpware.exe file, so
they connect to me instead of me to them.

Awww! I thought for a moment the app was idiot proof and with no
learning curve. (Famous last words before the system fails to ever boot
again.)

I guess it will have to be done more slowly. Cloned system partition
and all that careful but boring stuff. Jeeze, I must be getting lazy.

Blimey, it's not that bad. I wouldn't get stressed about uvnc, I was just
saying tight is well tight, and that video driver is well cool.

Like the last bug I had probs with was running uvnc on Windows 2008 x64,
there was a kludge to send ctrl alt delete's which didn't work. Now you
might ask why I wasn't using RDP on Win 2008... no I am not stupid, it was
a client server thingy which used VNC, actually I can't remember if tight
worked on x64 now or then, probably not, I think the uvnc x64 was beta
anyways, so I'm probably being unfair, but cat's are like that.

VNC is kinda more useful for Win 2000 and XP home and such

I don't know if you have tried the new remote desktop client version 7

http://support.microsoft.com/kb/969084

Man this rocks, now you can share vista desktops and the don't look like a
dogs dinner 'Hurrah!' and it does a lot more stuff I haven't had time to
read yet. I've been busy winding up the hummingturd.

Now listen up, old chap, my home XP had a near death experience a month
ago due to some driver in a silly little utlity. It would have been a
serious tragedy of a major order for a trustworthy old system, etc, etc.
Blah.

Tried it? I haven't heard of it! (I'm playing for a sympathy vote
here.)

I'm with you on the bit about "haven't had time to read it yet". That's
for sure. (Sad sound of violins.)

Maybe there should be a competition, open to all entrants, to get some
normality into him before Christmas.
