Two Users - But only 1 PC.
I got a dual core 3.2 GHZ.
and a XFX 8600 GT gfx card.
Is it possible to run two different users on the same CPU?
Let me put it this way...
Is it possible to have two users working at the same time from the same PC?
Like 2 monitors, 2 mice, 2 keyboards.
I have heard its possible on linux but, i want windows.

not a kvm switch -
reverse
kvm switch
if ur GPU does not support multiple monitor then you could buy this USB device that lets you attach another monitor @1024*768 with 16-bit color
