Mac OS X: lack of a remote-desktop solution.
(Able to connect TO a Mac, from any other computer via RDP).
I can go from Windows to Linux, Linux to Windows, and Mac to Windows/Linux... but no way to connect TO my OSX box except from another Mac. Why?

It's just VNC. It also has an SSH server in the same section so you can tunnel through securely.
Still, it's nice to know how to do this on Macs.
On Linux the VNC is an X client so one can have multiple instances running each exposing with their own graphical shell.
Does Windows RDP do that ? (I don't know).
TightVNC works the best with low speed networks, it uses JPEG encoding too.
BTW. is is also against the Windows EULA to use VNC server on it !
