if you have windows xp on your old computer just use remote desktop... then you dont have to spend any money...
(there is alot more to servers than just remote desktop)
Buy a server OS (the cheapest standard 'server 2008' starts at $999.00)
Format the HD in your comp
Install the new server OS
Download and install new drivers, might have to buy a few new parts because some parts werent designed to be used in servers. No big deal, can get whatever you need at newegg.com or your local PCWorld.
After about 2 - 3 hours of work you can enjoy your new server... :)

To do this you need to be running some type of remote desktop protocol (RDP) in Windows, or the equivalent in Unix/Linux. You can enable this in a server and use the client to connect to the server which will show the server's desktop on the workstation. Terminal services can also be used for this purpose. There are also several third-party packages which will accomplish this as well. When you log into the server using RDP or its equivalent you will see the desktop of the server.
Virtual Desktop Infrastructure (VDI) is a technology that allows users to access a virtual desktop from any device with an internet connection. VDI typically involves creating a virtual desktop image, or template and then deploying that image to a central server. Users can then access the virtual desktop from any device by connecting to the server through a remote desktop protocol (RDP) client. To configure VDI, you will need to perform the following steps: Set up a server: You will need to set up a server to host the virtual desktops. This can be a physical or virtual server, depending on your needs. Install virtualization software: Next, you will need to install virtualization software, such as VMware or Hyper-V, on the server. This software will be used to create and manage the virtual desktops. Create a virtual desktop image: Using the virtualization software, create a virtual desktop image that includes the operating system, applications, and settings that you want users to access. Deploy the virtual desktop image: Use the virtualization software to deploy the virtual desktop image to the server. This will create a copy of the virtual desktop for each user. Configure the remote desktop protocol (RDP) client: Install an RDP client, such as Remote Desktop Connection, on each device that users will use to access the virtual desktop. Configure the client to connect to the server hos-ting the virtual desktops. Assign user permissions: Use the virtualization software to assign permissions to each user, specifying which virtual desktops they can access and what actions they are allowed to take. By following these steps, you can configure VDI and set up a virtual desktop environment that allows users to access a consistent, centralized desktop from any device.

One way to gain remote control of a webserver is to set up a VPN, or Virtual Private Network. This will allow you to access your server from any other PC.
Yes you can, depending on what TV you buy. Most TVs which are flat screen in present time do configure to be a monitor for Desktop PC. The TV doesn't even have to be an expensive one, my Magnavox was cheap and works perfectly as a Desktop PC.
Set up a network.
By far the easiest way is to use windows xp and apache server 2.2 bundled with some php script installed. To do this get yourself a copy of windows xp and windows xp sp2 then go to/ and download the latest version of Apache 2.2 is the latest (I think) then install it. Once you have done that go toand download the latest version of php and install it on your windows windows xp PC. Once you've done that set up Remote Desktop on that PC and use your other PC (if you have one) to remotely control that first server PC. Make your site etc. and put it in the apache web directory on the first PC.
