remote desktop server for xp home

[Erik M. Jensen]

Dear microsoft.

This is the situation.
I've got at dell box that came with xp home
My employer has provided me with a laptop (xp pro).

I like to relax on the couch in the living room with the laptop on the lap,
operating the dell for internet surfing etc.

This is i think a normal use case, so could you pleas make remote desktop
server avalible for xp home ? - now i have to turn to vnc, netop etc.

Best regards
Erik

Try the program "TightVNC", It is brisk on a LAN.

The Hostmode can be run as a service. I have a few headless machines
(running DC projects) that I monitor that way).
