Can I use my laptop as a second monitor for my desk computer?

I have a powerful desktop PC and a weak laptop :)

My need is that I want to use the weaker machine as an extended display of the strong one. Is it possible to do so? If it is, please guide me.

Thank you.

Doubtful, unless your laptop has an appropriate input connector.

Using the network as the connection, you could set up vncserver on the desktop console and run vncviewer on the laptop.

Use VGA connector. There will two socket attached to one cable. Socket is like Monitor Pin. Attach one side to your laptop and other to your desktop and you will be able to see your desktop screen either on your laptop or on both laptop and desktop.

It's same process as you attach projector to your laptop.
