Will VNC run on a laptop with 32MB? What to do with OLD laptop?


Will VNC run on a laptop with 32MB?
WOuld be a nice remote desktop in my living room to
my bedroom linux machine or windows machine.

I've got an old laptop.

I was wondering what the best thing to
do with it is?


It has no CD and only 32MB of memory.
I found X windows is swapping constantly to disk
if you move a window on another machine I have.
Ok to run X in emergencies, but painfully slow otherwise.

Is there software to display digital photos and change it
into a picture display system?

Any ideas?
