From what I understand, Vista Home Premium can't host a Remote Desktop
Connection. For those of you wanting to connect to a Home Premium / Home
Basic computer, what program do you prefer? Looking mainly just to do it on
my local network.

+1 to both Teamviewer and UltraVNC.

Personally I use UVNC for remote control
of my Vista Premium .
( TViewer can be used too, just I am used to )

and TeamViewer for remote help to friends.
