Considering that tightvnc is Windows-only software it seems a bit out of
place here. I also seriously doubt this claim (but can't verify that)
because it uses the exact same protocol as VNC. I have some experience
with similar technology outside of the domain of "Windows freeware",
namely, SunRay thin clients. Sun used to recommend a dedicated, 100MBit
LAN for these, with 'using a VLAN of a non-dedicated LAN' as 'you can do
that if you really want to but be prepared to suffer' option.

Regardless of that, the "remote desktop access" model is also very
limiting/ annoying when compared with possibilty to enable applications
running on different computers to use a single display.
