what is RDP?

        * Reliable Datagram Protocol, also known as Reliable User Datagram 
Protocol (RUDP)
        * Remote Desktop Protocol, a remote 
access network protocol developed by Microsoft.I think you mean Remote Desktop 
- and what can I do with it?  I assume one of the things you can do with it is 
transfer files...?  I have never used that feature of windows.

I happen to have a Filezilla FTP Server configured on my desktop, so that would 
probably be the easiest form of file transfer.
I am just not sure how it would work. 
would there be two computers on localhost? 
or one of them on a static IP I would guess...  
or can I DHCP them both and each get its own IP address from the router (that 
would be weird)?

thanks for your time.

can it access a USB stick?  I wouldn't mind using that for "shared" disk space. 
(leave it plugged in).

I am also considering the realities and possibilities that I may need a 750W 
power supply. =:-O

I use it all the time, and XP mode does not have direct access to the host 
machine's HD, but can access it through a network or RDP share.
