Do you know if the Raspberry Pi's recommended OS Raspbian comes with a remote desktop (RDP) client as default, or one that I can download to remote desktop into a Windows 7 machine?

Remmina

Try running

to install Remmina.

rdesktop

You could also try rdesktop by running

Thank you, Remmina looks very promising. – Jake Elsley Oct 9 '12 at 12:11

Try install TightVNC Server on Raspberry Pi:

sudo apt-get install tightvncserver

Run it every time or add it to startup:

/usr/bin/tightvncserver

You will need a TightVNC Client on your Windows PC o Android Phone.

I think the OP wants a RDP client for the RPi, not a server. He wants to log in his Windows 7 RPD server. – Morgan Dec 22 '12 at 20:03
Hi Cerobot, I'm afraid I was looking for an RDP, not VNC client. – Jake Elsley Dec 26 '12 at 16:36
