when connecting remotely [by tel line and modem] from win/xp to

some drawback opposed to some other third-party connection methods
like pcanywhere. for example connection stability, server-ready,
screen refresh, file transfer. at the midd 90-ties, with msdos we
had excelent experience with pcanywhere 4.5, it was extremely simple,
powerfull and reliable for remote
access and file transfer.
so, i would like to read some advice or experience about built-in
rdp vs some 3rd party pcanywhere [for example]
In general - my experience with the built-in Remote Desktop (for Windows XP
to Windows XP (Professional and supersets) connections) is better than
almost all third party products. Makes sense - really - because you are not
adding any overhead to the OS that isn't really already there.
Otherwise - even though I used to use PC Anywhere, etc - I now use Remote
Desktop, Remote Assistance, UltraVNC (sometimes single-click) and TeamViewer
for all my remote needs - depending on the situation.
