Well here is the thing, I don't have two monitors but would like to use both my accounts, at the moment I can fly both in windows mode ofcourse, that works.
But is there a way to use for example my laptop (wich btw is pretty crappy to play eve in as it lags quite alot)... but to let my main computer use the laptop's screen somehow ?.
Without having to install eve on my laptop.

It's possible if you have a fast internal network. Pain in the arse though.

The simple answer: No.
The complex answer:
Similar to what the above poster said, if you have a fast as nuts network and a pretty decent computer, you can set up a remote client program on your laptop and stream the application over to your laptop. Problem is, you're still running 2 clients on your main computer, as well as a VNC and that hogs resources.
Easy solution: Run dual monitors.

Actually simple answer yes. (I do wish people would think before coming out with complete *******s)
Its as easy as installing a server on your main pc, and a client application on your laptop. This automatically installs "network graphics drivers" and you use the windows multiple monitors configuration to set it up as either a clone, or a "extend" monitor.
"fast network" equates to anything over 10mbits for a lan, which is pretty much the bare minimum that you will find as long as your computer was made sometime after 1990. (Would advise against wireless mainly because these can be a lot slower) It says that it doesnt support directx, however it does perfectly for me, I've run eve on there and then watched a movie.
Relatively mid range specs on my computer, I was doing it when I had 512mb ram, 2500+ mobile (1.83 ghz), and over a 100mbit network.
Works great.

Yea, here is my vote for Maxivista also. I get around 15fps over 100Mb network with the eve client running on the maxivista secondary screen. Not exactly pvp worthy but fine for most other things.
