You can go either way with VNC.  See the webpage:
 "Many of us, for example, use a VNC viewer running on a PC on our desks to
display our Unix environments which are running on a large server in the
machine room downstairs.  "

"It is truly platform-independent. A desktop running on a Linux machine may
be displayed on a PC. Or a Solaris machine. Or any number of other
architectures."
