What it is: A Web-based service that lets you use your computer from miles away. Hop on a Web browser, type in your password, and you come about as close as possible to sitting in front of your office computer.

What's cool: Not only can you use programs and work on files housed on your office computer, but you can print those files to a local printer. Plus, you gain access to any of the drives connected to the computer.

Drawbacks: The host PC must be running Windows, and the computer must be left on with a live connection to the Internet for the system to work.

Price: $12.95 per month per PC or $69.95 per year. Multiple license discounts are also available.
