How can I use my laptop as a monitor for my desktop PC?

[Minetsky]

I canno't afford to buy an LCD monitor right now and the desk in my college room is more like a very short shelf, and I won't be able to fit my 17" regular monitor there. So I was wondering if it's possible to use my Toshiba 5005-S504 laptop as a monitor for my PC. My video card is a Geforce FX 5600 which I believe has s-video out. Does anyone know?
