I'm sorry, did that go over your head? The settup to make it work was a series (3 or 4) questions, like the server name given us by our IT folks, my password I use for my office machine and my machine name (this one wasn't hard since I named my machine). Since the initial "setup" I click two buttons to see my office machines desktop. I believe it's so simple that even you could do it. ;-)

Rocky - you don't need to know anything to use remote desktop. It works from Win98 and other weak clients too... my son uses it between his bedroom because he actually wants to use a bigger machine than his old Win98 box for online gaming but wants to be in his bedroom, not my home office. The performance on a home phone LAN (also0 set up transparently with zero input from the user in XP) is just like being on the big box, even though he is on a 90MHz Pentium. This is really the terminal server software, beneath the sheets, but setup is a breeze. BTW my son is 8 years old and set up the remote desktop himself. So perhaps even an adult could do it.
