@TheJoeLynch No problem. Just the habit of a social media maven—see something public you are excited about, you just want to share it!

So far, iTap VNC http://bit.ly/bjV55I is the best iPad remote access client back to your Mac. Tried some cheaper ones with poor results.

iTap supports VNC so lots of platforms, but they also have an RDP solution for Windows in seperate app.
