If you ever find yourself in a situation where you need a remote desktop for running Windows software, consider using the Rackspace Cloud Windows Hosting option. In short, you get a full Windows machine (it’s virtual, but it acts just like the one you have at home) to get the job and work done accordingly.
I have several accounts/servers running at Rackspace.com doing different tasks for me. Because you only pay by the hour, you can turn servers on and off as needed – and only pay when things are running.
