Yep, thats what i do here.
I have a desktop running Vista in my Dome,and have all the junk hooked to it, like dome rotation, mount, scope, cameras, yada, yada..
Then i have a wireless connection to it, and run Remote desktop to it, and have a half second screen update, running full color 1920x1080 resolution, while im nicely snuggled in my room watching TV and surfing the net, all while running and imaging everything in the Dome outside.
Its as if im standing there in front of the screen.
