Apple Remote Desktop

Do any of you guys use the Apple Remote Desktop App?

I regularly use a combination of Screen Sharing and LogMeIn to access my iMac, Mac Mini Server and other MacBooks in the family.

\Is ARD something I could gain from using? Can I use it remotely, outside of my home network as well as outside of family home networks to help them too?

Possibly, I use it for my macs. It makes it really easy to install stuff remotely as well without the need for screen sharing.

Cool. Is it worth spending £55 of my vouchers on though, that's the question?

Unless you have a company to write it off against tax, or a real need to do this, I guess not. But hey that shouldn't stop you :P

Nope. Just home use with no company unfortunately. Would be nice though. :-)
