You can use third party softwares like PCAnywhere for greater features.

Didn't anyone think of Netmeeting ?? I have used it before. It works great. But dunno about how much more features anyone would want. If your PC and lappie is on network, u can virtually change anything on any node. If netmeeting is used, then you can share the desktop and can use your lappie to access the PC anytime right ?
