    How difficult would that be?

    In other words the idea is to setup a cheap pc with wifi internet connection, 1 or more webcams with microphones, so I can keep an eye on a place where I go rarely but were I want to be able to know what's going on.

    Could turn it on or off from remote? Reboot it? Start it up at set times? use some kind of motion sensor?

    Did anyone successfully do something like this or knows where to go to find out how to do it?

    Yes - you could use pcAnywhere, Citrix, Windows Remote PC, or a variety of other products to do this.

    Thanks again!
