Hi everyone. Now I know this sounds lazy, but what is the best way of changing music tracks, volume etc from another room? Walking is not an answer, not after a hard day of working

VNC if a PC is in the other room too.

Or a bluetooth keyboard and keyboard shortcuts

TightVNC the aplication is called, you can do it through msn as well, its called remote management and lets you see the screen and control the computer, i used to use it a lot when i had a Server in america (cheap domain ^_^) and it was a cracking peice of software.

I use Remote Administrator - been using it for years and its always worked fine for me. Allows me to connect to another PC's desktop and view the desktop if I was at that computer.

Or just use MSTSC which is built into XP :confused:
