Microsoft continues to annoy

I just built a Home Theater PC and installed Windows 7 Home Premium.  I had intended to use the built in Remote Desktop access to control the PC but alas I find out that Microsoft left support for the Remote Desktop server out of the Home PREMIUM edition of Windows 7.

Of course all the switches are there and you can fully configure it and nowhere when you are doing this does it tell you that it will not work in the edition you have.

Thanks a lot Microsoft.

Dining out

I am with the the kids at the Mellow Mushroom in Hickory.  Just me and the kids.  The wife didn't feel like joining us.  We are sitting on the enclosed patio work the heaters blasting but it is still too damn cold.  I am drinking a Rogue Dead Guy Ale trying to stay warm.  The good is taking forever.  It is a Saturday night do WTF did I expect.
