What is the best way for about 5 people to be able to see the same display (desktop, window, or terminal) with each sitting at their own laptop.  All will be connected to the same LAN although some may be wired and others wireless.  All will be running Ubuntu.  Although usually one of the people will be leading the demonstration/discussion, it might be handy if one of the others could step in and be the active controller.  We were thinking we read somewhere that VNC could be used like this in a group but are not sure.  Any suggestions?

    Yes, VNC can do that. Although to avoid problems you should have on workstation where the keyboard and mouse are used and then disable it on all of the others if you just want them to view instead of control.
