 ====About====
-X2Go is a program that lets you use your account's desktop remotely.  Imagine that you want to do work using DrScheme (or DrRacket, Netbeans, etc.) from your home computer but don't want to deal with the fuss of copying your work onto your CS account afterwards. **With X2Go, you can use your home computer as if it were a computer in Sanders Physics**.  You can view the exact same desktop that you always see on your CS account and run all your favorite programs.  It is as if you were sitting in front of a computer in the lab, but from the comfort of your own home.
