sound over VNC to osx?

[Tom Buskey]

Apple built VNC into OSX which is great for cross platform sysadmin.  They
also have a remote macintosh client for sysadmin that works on mac.  I'm
not sure it does sound and it is expensive.

You might have to look at some of the web based remote access things out
there to get sound.  The Chrome web browser also has some remote desktop
capability.  How these all function is complicated by trying to do cross
platform.
