I am thinking of adding a mac, (latop or mac-mini), to my arsenal of development machines for iPhone development.
Is it possible to use the equivalent of remote desktop so I can stay on my regular(pc based) keyboard and monitor, but open a window into the mac when I want to use it?
I do this now with multiple PC's running various flavors of windows, but being a mac novice was not sure if this was even possible.
EDIT: Maybe I wasn't clear: I want to remotely control my Mac from a Vista PC, not from another Mac.

This is relatively useful tutorial on this issue and the options/solutions available. You can use other clients besides apple remote desktop. Though I have to say apple's remote desktop is a nice piece of software. However, you said you are just adding one os x box to your network.
EDIT:
You can use this tutorial to get the server side of things working on the mac (which is really just turning on remote desktop services), then use whatever vnc client you use for vista to connect to it.
