Windows 7 & Remote Desktop Host Question

[msny]

I'm a programmer, and have a question for you
windows 7 guys.

Currently using Vista Ultimate and I tunnel into my
work connection using SonicWall VPN software.

I then fire up a remote desktop session and get
to my work computer. Its critical that I be able to
remote in to both program and do maintenance.

So in looking at my upgrade options (migration as upgrade)
on Paul Thurmonds site. I see the Home Premium Family pack
is a steal. But...I also noticed that Remote Desktop is NOT
supported as a feature.

If this is true, can I use another way to remote into my
work connection with Home Premium? What to do?

If not, I'm stuck with at least Win 7 Professional and I have 3 home
computers I'd like to do.

Thanks for your advice.

Logmein.com is OK too, no VPN needed...

You can connect TO someone with RDP from Home Premium. You just can't be an RDP server from Home Premium.

OK, so I cant be a host server, got that.
I can use log-me-in for that.

I assume then, its still found under
Programs > Accessories in Home Premium?

I have home premium and RDP into my server all the time..

It's installed in the same spot, programs/accessories
