Hi Misko,
The easiest way would be to make a connection with ssh -X or -Y which
enables X-forwarding. You then can start a individual X program from the
commandline but also the complete WM. Perfectly showing how capable
linux is in use. For more extended capabilities you could install x2go
server and client which will also make possible to have more then one
remote desktop.
