It's the same as what is being shown on the console. Much like running 
on Windows NT. The installation needs to be modified a bit so that it 
starts at boot time and uses KeyChain to store passwords securely (right 
now you have to enter the password every time).

As for the genie effect, since Xvnc now waits 40ms before sending 
updates to collect a bunch of them, the genie effect is usually only a 
frame or two. In other words, it works quite well (yes, you can actually 
see the genie effect). I have only had a chance to test with several of 
the Mac OS X clients running over Airport thus far. I'll try with 
FreeBSD/Windows/MacOS over 100mbps ethernet soon.

Again, kudos to Dan McGuirk.
