RE: Re: HA "Bargains"

No, Rdesktop is an additional download - go to maemo.org from the Nokia and
it's as simple as click the link and it installs.

Xpunlimited is free for 3 concurrent users on an XP/MCE machine, again a
simple download and it does all the work.

I use xpunlimited on my fairly slow cctvserver, it has one local and 3
remote connections being a n800 and two viewsonic airpanels, and all works
a
treat.

Also for anyone thinking about a 770/800. I just did the OS2007 upgrade on
my 800 - now have Skype on it which seems to work great.

That sounds very intriguing.  I'll definitely have to figure out how to set
up my current XP machine in this way.

Forgive my ignorance but is 'Rdesktop' part of the standard build software
on the 770?
