Thank god.
Nasrudin sat on a river bank when someone shouted to him from the opposite side: "Hey! how do I get across?" "You are across!" Nasrudin shouted back.

Actually, I like the new changes...the automatic update of the clients is flippin awesome and about damn time. I think it seems a little bit more responsive as well...

P.S. Happy 2000 for me!

Speaking of ARD...
Can you set ARD up to connect to a remote machine across the web without an IP (using a DNS maybe?)? Or, once you connect to the machine (using the IP), will ARD remember how to find it in the future after the ISP has changed it's IP? And finally, can you connect to more than one comp at a remote location through a router, without having to change the router's port mapping?
In TB2, you can name a computer with an email address, which gets registered on TB2's IP locator server. I don't think ARD works like this. So I don't see how you could connect (and continue to do so) to a machine on a dynamic IP, like most cable ISPs use. Maybe Apple added some magic to do this that I can't figure, in which case I'd assume they also worked out that last question. It would be great to not have to reconfig the router for each connection.

Can you update the clients without the need to restart them?

Why would you? This is MacOSX's problem.
