It's terrific!  I've been using VNC-over-ssh for the past few years.  That works but 
it's still kind of a pain.  But NX is stupendous! With NX, I'll never use VNC again. I 
connect to my server at home and it's real time or at least seems like it.  This weekend 
I'm going take my laptop to the public library, where they have free wireless access and 
test it.

What I'm curious about is how well it will scale up.  It's one thing for me to connect 
to my server and get decent performance; it's another thing for 10 or 20 or 50 or 100 
people to do the same.
