You can run RDP on any windows software, you don’t need server if you only want 1 user at a time.

I really don't want to get Windows server 2012 and try to figure out the while terminal services thing with licensing. I was thinking it might just be easier since I only need one or two people to remote in just to get some headless PC's and sit them in a corner somewhere. Probably a bad idea but any thoughts? The specs from QB are: · Windows Vista SP2, 7 SP1, 8.1 Update 1, or Windows 10(32-bit & 64-bit) · Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1, 2012 R2 · 2.4 GHz processor · 4 GB of RAM · 2.5 GB disk space recommended · 1024x768 or higher screen resolution, extended monitor is supported · 4x DVD-ROM drive
