Two sites. One forum. Different styles/URL.

I'm currently running v.3.07, but plan on upgrading to 3.5.

Anyway, this is my situation. I have a site - SITE A that has a very robust community - let's just say it's about Widgets. Now, I just launched a site - SITE B that focuses on Blue Widgets only. Now, instead of creating a whole new community, I was thinking of linking from Site B to Site A's forum. Over a VB.com, it was mentioned that it's possible to have sitea.com/forum and siteb.com/forum use different styles yet pull the same content. This way, I'm able to create an "instant" community on site b and keep the branding on Site B.

I'm not sure how this is done or what's involved. Please let me know if someone has experience doing this and what's involved. I also do not want to do anything to damage my rankings in Google for SITE A. I'm not sure how Google sees this type of modification. I want to avoide duplicate content penalties.

Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks.
Chris
