Is it possible to Remote Desktop into a Windows Vista desktop computer that does not have a monitor?

Can you remote desktop into a Windows Vista computer that does not have a monitor attached to it? Will the Vista computer boot up and run to allow the remote desktop connection?

To answer my own question above... Yes, you can remote desktop and log into a Windows Vista Ultimate computer that does NOT have a monitor attached. I just successfully remote desktop'ed into my Vista computer that has no monitor from a Windows 7 desktop computer. Pretty cool!

Yes, it works... I successfully tried it!
I also just wanted to point out that there doesn't need to be a keyboard, mouse or monitor connected to the computer that you are remote desktoping into it. –  Doug  May 23rd, 2010 at 2:48 AM
Another thing that I tried, which also works is remote desktoping into one computer, and then from that remote computer, you can then remote desktop into another computer... –  Doug  May 23rd, 2010 at 2:50 AM
You can also have multiple remote desktop connections going at the same time to different computers. –  Doug  May 23rd, 2010 at 6:31 PM
