I am also getting tired of remote X stuff.

is this Mac's native screen sharing utility? or some VNC software?

I tried the Teamviewer for some time last year, and it was not that great. http://www.teamviewer.com/en/index.aspx
I have heard some good reviews on VineViewer (from Vine server) http://www.testplant.com/dlds/eggman/ (I guess it is now called eggMan) when combined with Chicken of VNC http://sourceforge.net/projects/cotvnc/
