    1.RPi is just the CPU , that implies you would still have to procure input and output devices like keyboard, mouse, display
    2. if you are fortunate, there might be a HDMI port to your computer, but that doesnot make it a Display suitable for using with RPi. The HDMI of your computer would generally be an OUT port as is your RPi's HDMI, that would make yu connect two OUT PORTs and you wont see anything happening. The ideal display would be something like a TV which has HDMI IN.
    3.To be able to access RPi from your computer, once the RPi is initially connected to a display, ssh should be enabled and a static IP has to be assigned to the ethernet interface of RPi. As in all ix systems , it can be done in /network/interfaces file.

    Another way out is to purchase VGA to HDMI converter or DVI-D to HDMI Converter. Edit config file in the OS & then boot it.

    #-Link-Snipped-# : right, but that would still need you to be connected to a display. I find accessing RPi remotely more convenient for that very reason, ofcourse unless someone wants to start the gui, but otherwise most of the configurations can be done via terminal without a gui.
