Peter,
I must confess I've never tried it with Photoshop myself. At work we
run some batch jobs that way to avoid network traffic, and it's sure
worth it.
I'm not really sure how much bandwidth the RDP takes up with, say,
1280x1024 resolution and 24 bit colour...
I'd be most interested in the results too, if anyone cares to try. :-)
Cheers,
Jostein

Me, and I think Jostein suggested remote desktop (thin client).
I am just curious if anybody is actually using it for photo editing?
Are there any problems with such setup WRT photo editing?
It would be nice to have fast server and not to tease my older
notebook. Then wifi should be enough, I think.

I place my *ist-DS's image files on a network file server at home

I'm one of those guys). From there, my wife and I use our

fileserver
is connected to the network with cat-5 and a full duplex 100BaseT
NIC.
But our notebooks from which we do all our work are connected
wirelessly
with 802.11g wifi cards (56Mbps).
We have ourselves a bottleneck, paarticularly when we're batch
resizing
to post online.
I'm wondering if anyone here has used anything faster than 56Mbps
wifi
cards (standard 802.11g). I'm not sure I'm all that anxious to
upgrade
my router and two wifi cards, but if I can open up that network
bottleneck significantly I'll consider it. Any recommendations?
