Rails Remote Development Server iPad/Laptop Demos
===

I have a Rails application running on a remote Linux desktop at work via localhost. I wanted to be able to do live demos when I'm away from my desktop for business meetings and such without going through the hassle of pushing to my production server. I was wondering if anybody knew of a way to perhaps remotely connect to my desktop and run my Rails application on another device as if it was running locally? The remote device in question could be something like an iPad or net-book. 

My application is sitting on a Github repository if it counts for anything, with that in mind would it be easier to just get rails up and running on an iPad and download the repository?
