Q. I just got a new Android phone and I'm wondering if there's any app that allows you to remotely view (and even better, control) your desktop computer. Also, just a side question, how can I turn off notifications from my Email app?
A. There are many app for accessing you Android desktop remotly or accessing another computer from your Android.
Before I go on with answering your question, remember, Android is a Linux based operating system, so nothing is impossible.
First app is:
� Teamviewer for Android
� Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.teamviewer.teamviewer.market.mobile
� Note: You need to have the id and password of a machine that has teamviewer before logging into it
� Android-VNC-Viewer
� Link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=android.androidVNC
� Note: Virtual Network Computing (VNC) is a graphical desktop sharing system that uses the RFB protocol (remote framebuffer), so basically you don't care what VNC software the other machine uses, it could be TightVNC, Real VNC, Vino... Nobody cares
This are my favorites, but there are many more, here is a list for you:

How to utilize a cpu from a remote computer via wifi/internet?
Q. I would like to know if it is possable to use a cpu from a remote computer say my tablet to run certain processe like music for example and send it back to my pc via wifi. Basically im using FL studio and would like to know if i can send those processes or split them up, so i can send one half to another computer for processing. Maby break it into threads and send those across wifi.?
Basically I just want to make it so its like running several cpu's together on one motherboard, my pc, but without actually having them but using the computers arround me. This would be a kool app if someone could make one for android/mac/pc.

A. You're describing grid computing or "cloud computing" (though grid computing is more correct).

Or, you're looking for remote desktop solutions, such as RDP, and virtualization. You're mixing it together a bit here, though.

Are there any tablets that can efficiently let me remote into my work computer to use Photoshop or InDesign?
Q. I know a laptop would be better for JUST this purpose, but I'd also like to use it part time as a portable media device/web browser and part time to do some work. Is this fantasy thinking?
A. This is still in its fantasy thinking of Steve Jobs. The critical word I see is "Efficiently" specially for the work on photoshop or indesign. Yeah tablets(android, ipads) have come a long way since their inception and they do allow you to Remote Desktop to control the desktop - assuming you have good and reliable network. But for the professional kind of work - they do not suite your needs - just because the resolution on tablets is much less and connectivity could also be an issue.
If I were you - the best thing to do is to use a Webservice such as Dropbox or Zumodrive or microsoft's skydrive(?) and drop your files. The first two provide 2GB free and Microsoft has 25GB free if you have some WindowsLive account. I would copy them to these places and come home and download them to your local desktop/laptop. Alternatively, use a portable USB drive to copy and can avoid all the network hassles.
BTW, I have iPad and also Remote Desktop app as well. I use it mostly for ease of connectivity and things that I cannot do easily on iPad such as launch iTunes, so I can stream my movies from networked storage to my large screen LCD TV via Apple TV, or print a doc which is not easy to do so from iPad, copy things that I need from local machine to Network drives. Such activities I can easily do them. I have tried launching Photoshop, which works fine but the color contrasts and images do not look right and will have to repeat my work. I am not a professional photoshop user, but still love to do minimal edits - which I always do on desktop (iMac 27" which is cool). Same goes for Video editing as well. I use iPad via remote connectivity to check the status of the DVD burning etc.
Even a netbook is not good enough for real professional Photoshop editors, they are good for quick editing and viewing.

how can i control my mac desktop remotely using my ipod touch?
Q. Can anyone suggest to me an iPhone / iPod touch app that lets you control your computer remotely? i know they have an app that works like the apple remote. but i want a little more functionality than that.
I�ve recently stumbled across something called isofa, which looks like what I want. But I don�t think that ones available anymore.
what else is there?

A. Team Viewer would be the most preferred one since it can allow you to control your mac from android and pc as well and for FREE :)
If you Ipod is capable to connecting online through Wifi or Wireless Data then you should not have an issue.
Best of Luck.
