If you have technical know how and are in wireless range of lots of PCs why the hell do you use VPC? That doesn't make sense!! Especially when RDC is free and VPC is horribly slow and expensive!

Also as an aside with a PC with XP Pro on it, connecting a Mac to a PC so that you can use Remote Desktop Connection is as simple as plugging in an ethernet cable, and then changing a couple of Control Panel settings on each machine.. Job done.

I don't mean to be picky, but I have to say your advice is a tab misleading.
