For simpler processors like mcus, you can do it. Here is eg. a
joystick based "MS-mouse" sending mouse events to one of three
computers:

For a more complex system, running *nix, your best option is to use
a small computer module, comes in many forms, and design a mother board
for it. It is a "little" harder to design a computer module compared
to the mouse thing above.

You do know that there was an apollo computer company in
the -80-ies:

Sadly enough many of theese are probably due to the
"not my problem", "not my data" or
"we only suffer if this is made public" bugs,
