I'm actually very enamored with NX from NoMachine.  NX is a compatible
substitute for VNC.  I've spent time examining RealVNC versus NX performance
in side-by-side comparisons (visual/interactive view only).  I've noted very
substantive performance advantages for Flash applications running on
browsers in the NX client.

In both cases, I was using the native clients, as opposed to the Java-based
clients.  At any rate, don't forget to examine NX.

Thanks, Marc.  That's a helpful tip.  With Chrome/Android becoming very
popular on tablets and smart phones, it makes sense to have a nice solution
for that platform.  I think Java would work well-enough for me, even if it
is slow.  I would avoid using VNC on my little devices, but would hugely
value having the option available in a crunch.
