Probably not, and the issue is Netflix. The Netflix DRM talks
directly to the hardware.
My guess is that you would bring over a browser window with a
big black window in it.
You could try this with VNC; I think it would have the same
problem, but I don't know for certain.
What is the actual underlying problem you're trying to solve?
