Is something like this possible?

[medbot]

I am wanting to move my music gear out of my bedroom and into a spare room, but I don't want to have to move my computer. What I'm wondering is if I were to build a cheap crappy computer could I use it to remote control my main computer in my room, i.e. could I have a program running on my main but access it completely through another computer on the network? I know there are things like remote desktop and the like but I'm totally clueless about them, and would love it if someone could let me know if there is any way to do this or if it's just totally impossible.

The specs on my main (one day I'll put these in my sig, heh)
q6600 @ 3.3
4gb ram
ip35
8800gts 640
vista 64

Thanks lots

yes there is.

But if it was me, i would want to work off that pc you have listed. Also, you might have the generic background and such, and remote desktop is made for you to do administrative work. You prolly could do more, but it wouldnt be as if youre sitting at that desk.
