VGA to VGA cards


I was curious if there is such thing as a VGA to VGA PCI card, and if so, does it work with Linux to display another computers images in a resizable window.

I've never heard of a specific card that will take a computer's vga output and display on your machine, but you can have a similar thing with VNC!

depends if you own a gigabit network or not.

no it's not slow really... not amazing, but very usable esp with tight or zlib compression on it
