Laptop to floortop back to back via cross-over Cat 5 Ethernet cable using VNC free edition (10mbps). 2. Laptop to floortop via the internet using Microsoft's Remote Assistance. The laptop was connected via its inbuilt 28.8kbps modem; the floortop via ADSL at about 2.5mbps. Remote Assistant was visibly faster at refreshing the screen. Now I know VNC runs on Windows, Mac, *nix and, probably by now, most washing machines, whereas RA *only* runs on XP but it's still a bit disappointing. Any ideas why?
