Personally I use X11 over ssh. I have my laptop setup with custom

using ssh you get a couple of benefits, the login and connection are
encrypted and you can tunnel pretty much anything over ssh. And
depending on the speed of your computer you can enable compression which
can help the through put in some cases.
But you can't keep programs running on the remote machine if you close
your SSH session or shutdown your client computer, can you?
Use dtach or screen at the start of your SSH session and you will be
able to reconnect to what you were running with a later SSH session.
Each of these is provided by an rpm package of the same name in the base
Fedora Core distro.
