I have a friend who I want to game with. I'd like to be in the same room with him when I do that, but that's only possible if we have more than one monitor. I can use my dad's laptop, but I'm guessing the laptop's graphics would suck.

It would be really nice if my friend Kenny could game on my 2.8GHz Pentium-D while I attach my laptop to my quad-core. The quad-core would do all the processing for my instance of the game, but the laptop would be the input and display device. I'm not even going to think about using a wireless connection for this, the lag times would be horrible.

Any help is appreciated.
