Controlling a virtual machine through PowerPoint

The Virtual PC Guys today have an interesting post about a Virtual Server feature that was totally unknown for me: how you can control a Virtual Machine through Powerpoint.

To do this, you can create a PowerPoint slide and go the 'Insert' menu and select 'Object'. One of the objects should be the Microsoft Virtual Server VMRC Control.  Once you have added this object you should open the properties and change the server and port settings, and anything else you want. You’re ready to go.
