That is pretty darn cool. I might play around with it some one day.
Truth is, I found VNC first though.
But, in digging around on the web about xming, 2 things stood out that
reinforce my use of vnc [and this is quite confusing and may be inaccurate]:
It looks like you can use the sourceforge versions legally for any purpose.
If you use the versions from the creators website [which has the Windows
binary installers], it is NOT under GPL, AND if you are a commercial
entity (we are), you must purchase licensing.

PS I know everyone does it, but piracy in a commercial environment is a
pet peeve of mine. Why steal tools when there are so many good free
open source alternatives?

For two clients, I installed Xming, which is an X11 server for
Windows. This allowed me to have rdlogedit and rdlogmanager appear on
a Windows desktop and appear to the user to be running on the Windows
machine (when in fact they're running under Linux on the Rivendell
playout machine).
Who needs vnc-server when you can just use X?
