Basically I want to redisplay my work laptop screen onto my Mac in a window.

At work we use a well-locked down setup - WinXP, Nortel VPN and Tunnelguard
so far I've been unable to use remote desktop to get at it, or even VNC.
TCP-IP is totally tunnelled and guarded!

So I was thinking, could I use some sort of usb connection if such a thing
exists, most likely it doesn't, or maybe I could get to it via Appletalk or
some other protocol?

All this cos I can't be arsed swapping the video lead over......


You can get a Nortel VPN client for the Mac from www.apani.com. Once you have this installed and set up you can VPN into work and then use VNC to connect to your work PC or do pretty much anything else that you might do if you were directly connected to the network.
