Just glancing at the TridiaVNC fact-sheet, it seems it supports.... drum
roll please.... zlib compression.

Yippee.

TightVNC supports, among others, jpeg compression... meaning it'll work
quite a bit better over a low-bandwidth connection.  It also processes
mouse events locally, meaning there's less of a lag with the mouse
cursor... dunno about Tridia.

I'd just go with TightVNC, personally.  Actually, I do just go with
TightVNC.  :-)
