I have a 23" all-in-one computer for home use. I also have a laptop that I use for work. Is there any type of VGA to USB graphics adapter that would allow me to use my AIO as a monitor for the laptop? Does such a thing exist?

If the AIO has a video input or a capture card it's easy, if not you'd have to use something like this, a USB capture device.

It is not a hardware solution, but if you run Windows Professional or above on your laptop, you can use remote remote desktop and use the Keyboard and mouse of the AIO too.
