If u need to logout+login .mac account to reset it every once in a while - it's an outrage!! at least one of these machines isa remote one!! that's the whole idea of this feature. Telling users to login+logout is actually telliong them: "buy a flight ticket. Tell your boss u r taking a vacation and travel to the remote machine to reset its .mac account" - that's pathetic. There are many VNC (and other) based technologies to allow full sharing and remote control. They all work great - but requires installation & configuration - not to mention fiddling with your router settings. The "promise" behind back to my mac was an alternative solution, settings free (u define it just once) - it shouldnt be to difficult to support, btw. The fact that this service goes "ac / dc" on people is outrageous - especially since a .mac account costs money!!! I am sitting right now at a cafe' 5 mins from my home - and can't pull my "save game" file from the home computer in order to play here on my laptop.... Frustrating :( Ha!
