I RDP into my laptop from my home computer just to keep my monitors, keyboard, and mouse, and it's not that slow with the laptop and the computer running on the same network.
- ineedasername 6y agoI'm fortunate that I can access all work resources from my personal computer, especially now that my workplace has been more liberal in providing VPN access to certain resources, about which they were previously reluctant (Well, they funneled many people to a poorly performing Citrix "Workspace", especially overloaded at the moment. It hurts to have to spend 7 or 8 minutes waiting for a remote-hosted version of Excel to load, navigate to a network drive, just to open a file) In any case, I'm set now, and my home setup is significantly faster than work-issued laptops. Even with multi monitors, it will be tough going back to a slow setup. Maybe I'll start RDP'ing into my home computer to "work from home" while at the office when everything opens up again.
