Q. I have a Windows desktop tower next to my Linux desktop. Is there a way to have my Windows machine in a separate window on my Linux desktop? I hate having to screw with hooking up another monitor every time I (am forced) to used Windows for something.
A. You could get a cable splitter and have one end into ur monitor and the 2 other ends going into the 2 computers. This may not be the best thing if you want to use both at once however.
Best way (and what i do with my laptop) is to install a VNC server/client.
1) If you're using Linux as ur main machine then you may have some VNC program built in (espec if you run kde). If not then find one from somewhere. Install the client on your linux.
2) For windows i suggest TightVNC as its what I use.. Seems relatively easy too. Just install the server on that comp.
Then just use ur linux comp to access the windows pc via a network.. Easy!
