10.5: Use Chicken of the VNC with 10.5's Screen Sharing

If someone comes up with a cross platform implementation of the Screen Sharing app, it will be much better remotely - from what I can tell - than just lowering the colors. Apple's VNC implementation seems to use an intelligent algorithm to determine how much data to be sent... it's the fastest VNC client/server I've seen.

For me, I installed Vine Server along side. I use the default OS one for local stuff and Vine remotely from my Windows machine.
