The Remote Display Client software allows users to extend and mirror desktop displays across networked Macs and Windows PCs. It provides an efficient solution for remote collaboration and easy screen sharing.
RDS enables users to share one or more displays on their computer with other computers on the network that run RDC. RDC, in turn, uses the shared displays of RDS computers to display their desktops by sending display information over the network. This allows users to either duplicate local displays by mirroring or extend their desktop onto the shared displays.
Remote Display has a wide range of possible uses. For example, it can extend desktops onto an older or underutilized notebook computer, temporarily allow users to use another workplace's computer display while keeping their own programs and data on their notebook, or provide computer professionals with as much desktop space as they need.
To use Remote Display, users must have an Apple Macintosh with a PowerPC G3 233MHz or better, or Intel Core Solo 1.5GHz or better. The computer must also have Mac OS X 10.4.8 or later, and 256MB RAM or more. System memory will be used for any remote displays that are used to extend the desktop. However, none is needed for mirroring displays.
RDC allows users to configure how much memory to allocate for remote display purposes. Additionally, RDC for Macintosh supports display depths of 8/15/16/32 bits per pixel (256 colors, thousands of colors, and millions of colors).
Overall, Remote Display is an excellent software for anyone looking to extend or mirror their desktops across networked Macs and Windows PCs. It is easy to use, efficient, and highly customizable.
