Laptop as a monitor...

I have a custom assembled desktop PC with XP Pro and a Dell Laptop with XP Home. They are connected through a wireless LAN router.

I was wondering if there was some way to play games (actual video games, not just simple exe files) installed on the desktop on the laptop without having to install them on the laptop (i.e. use the laptop just as a monitor and input device).

Just wondering -- it would be a great way to save HD space.
