Any X client (e.g. xterm, fvwm, xemacs, netscape, ...) can run
remotely over the network. You also need an X server, which is the
same X server you'd install to run X locally. It's also useful to
channel X connections through an ssh connection, which involves having
ssh installed.

A network? AFAIK there aren't any special hardware requirements.

There's a Remote-X-Apps mini-HOWTO, which covers a lot of the
important questions and FAQs about doing this sort of thing.
