True, although the RealVNC client are also free for downloading. (For the OSes where they actually provide the client, of course.) It's the server that you pay for, and that's included in the price of the iPEPS. I often use a config where one such unit acts as a front for an inexpensive electronic KVM switch so as to amortize the cost, with the down side that you can only see one server console at a time.
