I'm looking for a way to have 2 users simultaneously use 1 computer. Can anyone teach me how to use vmware, virtuabox or softxpand. Are there other ways on making this possible? If possible I'm looking for an option where I won't spend a lot of money. I need to use 2 windows 7 simultaneously.
Anyone know how to make a multiseat setup?

You can't. ONLY one user can use the PC at a time (physically).
1 Computer runs one OS ONLY at a time.
Virtual OSes, are for using a second OS inside application window for some other tasks (i.e. running MacOS in a VirtualBox to test compatibility with the application you just made for Windows 8).
A server can HOST multiple clients to perform multiple tasks, but each client computing device (often called a Dumb/Smart terminal) is still one PHYSICAL computing device for ONE Physical person to use.
Lastly the technical aspects to any of these solutions are not a simple "teach me in 5 easy steps" and are best and often handled by PROFESSIONALS since there is a MYRIAD of issues that can come up with any of these functions you need to be 'on the fly' be able to handle on your own (no support).
