Hey, I'm here!  :-)

BTW, "Mac" is not an acronym, but a shortened form of "Macintosh".

"MAC" is another computer-related term, and almost everyone with a
computer has one. See here for definition:

>>> Has anyone seen VNC running as a "hidden process" on a power
>>> mac (9.x)?

This issue was discussed a little while back, where Jonathan
Morton (ChromiVNC server) made it clear that there is not a
strong, 'legal' case for doing this.

His reply, and much of the relevant preceding discussion, can
be found in the VNC mailing list archive:

There are also several options if you just want to "get it out
of the way". List archives again:

BTW, it's probably worth pointing out (every so often) that the
VNC mailing list can be searched:
