 Okay, this might be a stupid question. I have a decent PC and a crappy laptop. Is there any way to use the laptops screen and keyboard to play the PC? I know that you can buy a cord that will let you forward your PC's monitor to a TV, would it work for forwarding a monitor to a laptop's screen? I don't know what to do about the keyboard though

Is this a really unfeasable idea or is there an easy way to pull it off?

You want to control your PC through your laptop?

I used to do this with a program called RealVNC http://www.realvnc.com/

Well, not quite that. The problem is that the laptop sucks really. What I want to do is use the laptop's screen and keyboard and the PC's RAM and video card and all whatnot. I basically want to use my PC laying down in bed. :ninja: Is that possible?
