I have a laptop with a really old video card and I was just thinking about how I can connect to a newer machine via RDC at my school. I'm curious if anyone knows if terminal clients handle the video processing or if it's all done by the local video card?
I'm sure some amount of video processing has to happen on my end, as my monitor has to render the output, but I'm curious if it's more like looking through a dirty window, where I could see really great 3d graphics on my monitor with no performance penalty, only it wouldn't actually look all that great as my monitor wouldn't be able to output the colors, etc.
Anybody know?
