ABSTRACT:
A first computer is capable of being used with a second computer. The second computer has a second bus and a second central processing unit that runs a second operating system that provides a user interface. The first computer includes a first bus for connection to the second bus. The first computer also has a first central processing unit configured to run a first operating system that provides a user interface and configured to cooperate sometimes with the second central processing unit such that the first and second computers operate with one of the central processing units as a single computer when the first and second buses are connected.
