Dual Monitor-Laptop to Laptop

Jun 10, 2008 1:03AM PDT

I have a old laptop that really has no use. Before I get rid of it, I was wondering if it's possible to use it in as a second monitor with my primary laptop. I have dual monitors set up at home on my PC and my laptop, but don't have anything I can take out of town. The laptop is small enough that would be it easy to travel with. Is this even possible? Is there a software that will allow this?

Thanks,

Jason

have you seen the laptop with a screen on both sides of the top so you can view it from either side? check it out at dvlaptops.com
