    That's close to what I do on a daily basis.

    Whenever I am away from my computer, I always feet the need to do at least 2 things remotely:

    1. Change the song/playlist being played on the computer
    2. Check the download status of files in my download manager, stop and stop download jobs.

    Since I have purchased N800, I have been living a luxurious life in this department, as I can keep a tab on my PC even when I am on my bed or a different room.

    I connect to Vista using rDesktop and GNU/Linux using VNC Viewer. Is there a faster option than VNC for remotely connecting to GNU/Linux from N800?

    i have used logmein for years ever since it was created
    the site is very secure as it uses:
    1-ssl which protects you from local siffers
    2-main account password(make it complicated with a bunch of characters.
    3-before you connect to the computer, it asks for an aditional 8digit access code.
    4-then you have to login to the actual computer(the "secret" administrator account from safe mode will not be accessible)

    overall it is very safe, i use it daily
