Remote Desktop

I just got my new Dell E521 with VBista Home. I cannot figure out how to get
the remote desktop connection enabled. When I click on computer, properties,
remote, it does not show a section to add users. I am able to use the RDC to
remote into another computer, but not from the other computer to the E521.
Something is missing, and I cannot enale it I guess. Please replay to
(e-mail address removed) as well, as I do not check here that often.

PS "Sam", the Indian tech support from Dell, suggested I pay for Dell
Oncall to fix this issue.

Vista Home (Basic or Premium) does not include the Remote Desktop server.
You would have to upgrade to Ultimate or Business to get it. All versions
of Vista has the client portion, so you can connect to other computers
running terminal server, like XP Pro.

I use Tight VNC to connect to my wife's laptop.
