Using an Ibook to control a PC
I just purchased a new IBook 1.2 GHz. I have a wireless router and I’m trying to figure out how I can use my old PC as basically a secondary hard drive. I’ve done quite a bit of research, and figure I can use RDC from Microsoft, but I’m not quite sure of its full capabilities. For instance, when starting up the PC would I be able to see the start-up screen and what not?? I’m hoping to be able to just put the PC in a corner somewhere without the need of a screen, mouse and keyboard and then using the Mac to control it.
Please, if you've used Remote Desktop Control on the Mac to control a PC let me know if you can see the start-up screen and all of that or if you can only log in once the computer is up.
Thanks.
