"Much much much faster than RealVNC!"
Pros
Solid and fast. Includes both client and server. Free and open source. Easy installation. Handles multiple simultaneous clients.
Cons
None for me.
Summary
The client is probably 5 times faster refreshing the screen. I was using RealVNC over a gigabit network and getting really slow refreshes. Switched to TightVNC client on XP and Remoter on iOS to control my Win7 HTPC (old school for sure - but it works just fine). These new clients are both much much much faster than RealVNC. Went ahead and replace RealVNC server with TightVNC server just because. It is solid and fast, too.
