The first time I read this I took a double-take - it sounded like some
'1337 h4x0r t00l' until I checked the webpage.

How is this different to VNC? Is it faster? How does it compare to
rdesktop? Is it optimised for low-bandwidth connections? Does it have a
sound server? Does it support multiple connections to a single desktop? I
haven't tried it yet but I'm just curious what the driving factors are.
