It depends on what you mean. If you are talking about having the two machines set up in the same room and just running a VGA or other video cable between them, the answer is that you will not get to do so. The reason being that the video ports on laptops are output, not input.

Now, having said that, if you mean to ask about sharing your desktop such as in a remote access session (even if the two machines are in the same room), that can be accomplished through a program called TeamViewer. You can learn about it and download the program at http://www.teamviewer.com. It is the program that I recommend to all my clients and the one that I use as well. The great thing about it is that it is free when used for non-commercial purposes.

If you have any other questions about this or other technological matters, let me know. I'm always glad to help.
