with windows xp home/pro/sp2, you can use the remote desktop connection, the server is already implemented in windows xp, the client can be downloaded free from microsoft. ( The client works well on old computers running windows 95 ^_^) The only trouble is that windows xp home/pro/sp2 only allow 1 working user at a time unless you use another software ( I use the xp unlimited terminal server) to unlock to 16 the number of active users. Hope it helps ^_^
