Can I turn my Netbook into a dual monitor for my desktop PC?

My Netbook running Windows 7 has a nice tft display. However, it just lays around when I work at home. It would be nice if I could re-use the screen like a multi monitor setup, just without an extra monitor but my Laptop to extend the workspace. The Laptop has a DVI output but no DVI input. Is it possible at all?

Yes, there is a software(!), called MaxiVista, that can do that. I used for my two laptops and it works as a champ. There is a video demo and a trial download at http://www.maxivista.com
