[Andrew Leeds]

I think Phil may have come to the solution here... a little analysis:

- Requirement: Access to information stored on the computer in the basement.

So we don't need to run applications on the remote host, just grab files 
that it has. So I think the easy answer is to share the folder 
containing that data with the hosts / users that need access to it. 
Windows 7 has a homegroup feature that tries to help you do this by 
generating a passcode for all the pc's you want to share between.

The RDP client is included with all versions of Windows, but unfortunately the server portion is not. It is usually only found in the higher and versions (Professional etc.) and the server versions.

I'm wondering would I be able to SSH into it like you can do with the raspberry pi to access information off of it from my laptop in my room. That way if I need something or want to try something I don't have to run all over the house.
