I would like to start using the remote option, and i need
to know which computer OS I can run the host and/or
remote from. Where can I find such information.

Also, how can I tell if I am running XP home or XP pro?

Thanks

Chaz

Right-click on "My Computer" and select "Properties" to verify your version of Windows XP.
