Screen sharing in iChat (Leopard)

OK this rocks.
iChat in Leopard supports remote access. If you've ever worked with the various VNC stuff out there like Apple Remote Desktop, or Chicken of the VNC, (Virtual Network Computing) you know what a pain it is talking someone through making the connection, (or not making the connection).
Just go to the bottom of the iChat window and use the screen sharing icon. You have access and control of each others computers. Crazy stuff.
There are also some other options, a great resource is here:

Anybody teaching, tech supporting or just trying to help out a friend will LOVE this!
