VNC for corporate dummies I reckon, easier to install, configure and use for faux stuck in Windows (or Mac) World, plus there's somebody you can sue when it goes south. Thanks for listening to my TED talk, "Anyone who tells you we have any idea how the fuck computers work is a liar"

That was my thought, but I also think there's a "business" prejudice at work here. I took a squint at the RealVNC pricing and it's considerably cheaper than Anydesk. Both very stable. Both do the job. Both offer support and "somebody to sue". But the VNC base code is open sauce and there are plenty of IT managers who simply can't stomach that.

I forgot there are other commercial vnc products. TigerVNC is free and also cross-platform. For that matter RDP is more performant than vnc (ime) and viewable on open source vnc clients -- is that still free on Win 10/11?

Remote Desktop is free in Pro and server editions of Windows. That's what we used at work. He May Be Your Dog But He's Wearing My Collar

It's quite something to see an ancient Dell C2D business SFF pc with Intel graphics driving Win10 to a 27" iMac display via RDP. Amazingly responsive. Thanks for listening to my TED talk, "Anyone who tells you we have any idea how the fuck computers work is a liar"

I upgraded my home PC to from normal Win 10 to Win 10 Pro specifically so I can use RDP to log in to it from work to make it look as if I'm working when, actually, I'm pissing about on my home PC. I think it cost about £7 with an upgrade key acquired from eBay. in my defence, we've had fuck all work for months and, in fact, have now emptied our order book and are shutting up shop. It's been so long doing naff-all it's going to be a major shock to the system in three weeks when I start my new job! ▪ ┌────┐ ┌────┐ │ │ │ │ ▪ │ └────┘ │ │ ──┐ ┌── │ ▪ ┌──────┤ ▪ ▪ │ ┌┘ │ │ ▪ ┌─┤ └──┐ │ │ ┌──┘ │ │ │ ││ ││ │ ┌─┐ │ │ └─┼┤ └┴─┴───┘ │ │ │ ─┘│ │ │ │ ┌──────┐ └┬──────────┘ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ │ └───┘ └───┘ If Feds call you and say something bad on me, it may prove what I said are truth, they are afraid of it.
