I discovered a PC Magazine article that does a very nice roundup of the
remote control market:
Remote Computing Software
http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,4149,225861,00.asp
The article includes analysis and review of the major applications,
along with recommendations. This is from 2002.
PC Magazine also has current index of the major remote computing
platforms found here:
