"I had a situation where I needed to control two computers over the Internet. The best solution for me was to use VNC networking technology. VNC stands for Virtual Network Computer and is a real nice way to remotely control computers through a GUI interface in which you see the remote desktop. I tried all of the Mac OS X VNC clients I came across and from my experience Chicken of the VNC is the way to go."

nxserver is extremely nice. It is very efficient, and works over DSL(400kbps) without strain at all. From what they say, it even works over a modem, but I have not tried that.
Bottom line is, its quicker than vnc, or even windows remote desktop. Also, you don't need an active server, it just runs by connecting through ssh, then starting the server on-demand.
With SSL encryption, and how efficient nx is, I see no reason to ever use VNC again.
