Recently after having to install a remote access program for
a friend.  I had a think about where projects like WABI, and WINE
are going and the current hype about Network Computers.

How difficult would it be to implement a Remote Access client in
Linux/X ?  Then those who just cannot live without their windows
applications can run those applications on from machine in the
network (a headless 486 can be bought for a few hundred dollars),
running Windows and serving those applications over a remote access
link.  I beleive there is a published spec/api or whatever about
how to implement this sort of client.

Has anyone out there considered or investigated a similar project to
this ?  I'd be intrested to hear people's thoughts
