That's why they invented RDP and VNC.

Altho in this case, I usually prefer VI, because it's lower bandwidth and 
you can work effectively with very delayed feedback.

Maybe emacs is the same, but I find I can't easily drive emacs without 
feedback after most command keystrokes, while it's easy to (for example) 
find a string in vi without all the incremental stuff.
