Apple Remote Desktop Released

Posted by pudge on from the big-brother-is-not-all-that-bad dept.

A user writes "Apple Remote Desktop provides remote administration and viewing for Macs. It works back to Mac OS 8.1, over the Internet, provides remote software updates, system checks, screen locking and more. Sweet." Sweet indeed. I could use this for my home network (right now consisting of five Macs, going on six). The cost is $299 for 10 clients, $499 for unlimited clients.

  1. Very cool by rjamestaylor · · Score: 3, Funny
    We'll be setting up a room of iMacs for digital editing/image processing and this will make that setup manageable. Freaking cool and at a great time.

    Unfortunately this means we won't need to hire a desk-jumper to click 'Ok' every ten minutes, so unemployment will remain unchanged. Sorry.
