How to combine the power of two computers into one (PC and laptop)?

Question

Clustering

Is it possible to combine the power of two computers into one. Specifically PC (Windows 7) and laptop (Ubuntu 14.04). I googled but didn't find any practical example. They say that somehow it is necessary to make a cluster (main) and add a second cluster, but how to do this is not written, I could not find it.
1. Is it possible to combine the power of two computers into one?
2. How to do it (is there a guide, article, tutorial)?
UPD: for example, I work in Photoshop with large photos or render a video, and then the PC does not have enough strength to overpower this load, it starts to slow down a lot. And here I would like to connect a laptop to combine power, ....

Answer 1

When operating from the network, the electrical power consumed by them is already combined.
Therefore, clarifying questions arise - what do you mean by power pooling and for what purpose do you want to do this?

Answer 2

In order not to get up twice: they say that chickens are milked, but how to do it is not written.
Help me to understand.
p.s.
Lack of critical thinking skills is very, very bad for a young cluster builder.

Answer 3

They answered so well. I repeat that when working in graphic editors and in other sonivegas, when rendering, the processor increases to 100. Is it possible to divide this load into 2 computers? And about the perversion, look at the crypto-currencies. The guy is studying, and you are writing him a stop uphill.

Answer 4

Using a laptop in this case is some kind of sophisticated perversion, even more than a cluster of raspberries.
