While PCREMOTE is an option, it doesn't do too well with some graphics
modes.  PCAnywhere (in version IV, I believe) is a commercial product
and is quite solid, with enough features to keep the security-conscious
happy.  If you own PCTOOLS and can wait a couple of months to get the
version 7.0 upgrade, the ability to run applications remotely will be
built in (upgrade is US$49+US$6 for shipping).  PCAnywhere has been
around for a long time while the PCTOOLS implementation of remote access
has only been tested (hopefully better than some of their other stuff,
but I digress).

Other applications that do remote access quite well are Carbon Copy,
CloseUp, etc.  Pop down to a ComputerLand store and see if you can
get a demonstration.
