I can now travel with access to everything as long as I have internet access, and if can get everything that is in the office. I don't have anything with me to lose, which is a bonus!

I can fully take control of the office desktop from anywhere in the world. I can sent emails as if from there and attach documents just as if I was sitting in front of it. I would say to give it a go and see if it meets your needs.
Until the electric goes out due to a storm and turns off your computer. How will you turn it back on remotely?
