Hrm...interesting, another tough question, I know some of you guys actually run X over a dialup 56Kbps line.
I.E. : Exporting Display from one PC to another thru a 56Kbps dialup. How's the performance? How about a 28.8Kbps line? Is there any limitation to the number of applications i can export? Also, is there any latency during the launching of applications? What actually happens during a X display export? Brief descriptions of coz... I know I ask alot, really curious here. Thanks!!
