Thanks for all the responses, guys.
Danny, isn't VNC just a term, sort of like SLE? Is there one company in particular that you are talking about?

Bryan, I read (keep in mind, read) that MajicJack is the dumbed down version of Skype and has no benefits over Skype. Can I do the virtual desktop stuff with MajikJack? Thanks.

Tony, thanks too.

That looks good. No problems for you so far and it's free to start, sounds like I can't lose. I will give it a whirl. That's what I was looking for, I think.
Thanks so much guys for giving me some solid info.
