If you slap linux on it - you can turn on xdmcp and remotely log into
it through your favorite X11 gui desktop environment.

FireWire support in Linux seems to be spotty but is getting better.
Most PCI cards do work, it's the onboard firewire that sometimes don't
- I know the nforce2 firewire works (at least for me) - but some
onboard firewire controllers don't (yet anyway).
