(I only put best in quotes because it is still technically an opinion although it is one that is probably shared by a lot of people)
the "best" way to remotely connect to a computer.

40 It essentially lets you log into a remote computer as if you were sitting at a terminal connected to it, except you're halfway across the Internet.
It doesn't do graphical stuff in any efficient manner, and I've no idea if you can make it work with a Windoze machine at either end... but if you know how to use a UNIXey command line and both your computer and the one you want to log into run Linux or OSX, it just works right out of the box.
It's also secure and encrypts everything, so no worries there.

for windows computers there is putty (as a client that is). If the server has x installed on the computer you want to connect to(which is pretty much the only way on Linux machines to have a gui) you can forward X through the ssh connection which in my eyes works better then stuff like team viewer ever could.
42 I've tried using ssh -X before, and even connecting to a server on the same network as my laptop, it was slow and laggy enough that I just had more luck with the command line alone. But maybe that's because I was using a Mac, and Mac and X don't really get along very well.

for me it worked flawlessly. Keep in mind though that all the rendering load is on the connecting computer. If it does not have a good enough GPU it will have lag.
