Did I miss the Mac version or is that not available? Show-stopper for just about everyone I know.

Ah, such a shame there nothing for Mac right now, I'm always looking for a faster remote that'll work with challenging bandwidth on the road.

I use/work for Sococo, and we're also working on the 'challenging bandwidth' issue. Fortunately VP8/9 have lots of knobs to turn that can be used to control bandwidth.

Well, as this graph[1] clearly shows... Red is the winner! Also... this graph doesn't seem to match up with the data provided in the benchmark PDF[2]... unless you truncated it for some reason. At least one of them should be 50% of the red bar.

Two more things:

1) Is there a reason you don't list what version of RDP you are using? There is a big bump in quality with 8.0

2) Is there a reason you don't include other paid offerings in your benchmark? Since you offer paid versions it seems like that would be fair.

or you could use Brynhildr and get sweet 60fps for free http://blog.x-row.net/?p=2455

Obviously Im not the target market. I expect my VNC program to tell me things like port numbers, bandwidth utilisation and codec used, not treat me like an idiot.
