Is it possible to connect 2 HP All-In-One Desktop computers for purposes of setting up dual monitors? I want my work displayed over 2 monitors.
Model 22-8726 would be the working computer and connected/displayed only to Model 22-3016.
As I understand it, these models have INPUT only connections and may not be possible without purchasing hardware. Is there another HP monitor I can purchase that would be just to display from the main monitor?

I can't find the specs for the first one, only for the second one

which does not have anything for you to use as a monitor.
By the way All-In-One machines as designed to work as All-In-One machines, everything will work as ONE unit. Since I can't find the specs of the first unit therefore I don't know its ports to be used for an external monitor.
Many users have to use USB to HDMI or VGA or DP ... to send output to a standard monitor. HP sells many monitors you can find one to work with your machines using USB port.

Thanks for the quick follow-up.
The first All-in-One Model is, in fact, 22-b226. This would be the main monitor/source.
It looks to me like they (HP All-in-One) both have HDM1 ports.
If I purchase a second monitor, what type do you suggest that I can simply plug into (Model 22-b226) HDM1's port?
Thanks!
