Does anyone know whether there is a limit to the video memory used over
remote desktop? i.e. if the host computer has 128MB video memory, can this be
fully utilised or is there some limit to the amount that can be used?

In other words, if the LAN is fast enough (gigabit) would one be able to see
Longhorn aero glass and its animations as if one were using the host computer
locally?
