Sharing monitor between 2 laptops?

[brett]

Say I have laptopA and laptopB, can I use B's monitor for A? Meaning,
A gets a larger viewing area. B is simply a host at this point.

I'll use remote desktop from A when I want to do something on B.

Thanks,
Brett

That's extremely neat. I didn't know laptops needed that though.

Thanks,

They don't, unless you want to do as you described.
