Remoting

I was driving to work today, listening to LBC and I heard that GoToMyPC.com had won awards as a remote PC access system for years in a row.

I'm shocked. Am I totally wrong in saying that using a free VNC program and setting up an Hamachi network to run as a service (both of which are free and not that tricky to do) will give you all the remote control you need.

With the Hamachi network you can do some crafty work with the IP settings and get access to things on the work network without any VNCing.

And yet to use GoToMyPC you have to pay.

Come on, people in business. Roll up your sleeves and do a little IT work. It'll save you cash.
