I don't really know what you mean. You want a peice of hardware, sort of like a laptop, that will allow you to input mouse and keyboard information into a remote computer, and view that monitor's output?

You're making things hard on yourself. I don't know of any device that exists like that. If there was one, it'd probably be more expensive than a cheap laptop and VNC. You could buy a small Asus Eee PC...They run $299, I think.

I use VNC all the time to control my servers and PC's at home from anywhere. It's free, it's easy, and I highly recommend it.

No hardware device exists of this nature. At least, not in my knowledge.

VNC requires very little processing power. I've run it on Pentium II 233MHz machines.
