Remote Desktop
Have you ever wanted to access the files on your work computer from home or on the road? Or have you wanted to help a friend diagnose a problem with his or her computer without having to trek to that person's home or office?
The dynamic duo of David Caesar-Dare and Deb Meisels will demonstrate how to accomplish these tasks using a dual screen-dual computer setup, the Windows XP built-in Remote Desktop, and third-party computer programs, such as CrossLoop, LogMeIn, and GoToMyPC. A comparison of the features of these tools as well as security considerations will also be addressed.
