    I have no idea if this is even possible.

    First question:

    I am thinking of making my own computer and hooking it up to my other one through a network or something. I have wireless internet so basically what i want to know is can i share the internet through my wireless adapter?

    Second Question:

    I am really cheap and dont want to guy another monitor so is there a device or anyother way to switch between computers?

    Thanks for any information you can give me.

    Yes, via a router and kvm switch.

    yep like Adrynalyne said, the KVM switch provides control over 2 computers using 1 Keyboard, Mouse and Monitor and is usually switched with a key combo.

    and for the net sharing, youll probably have to buy another wireless adapter for the 2nd computer or connect it with a wired connection, but this really depends how your network is set up.
