I have this idea in my mind that if it's possible it'd be great.

Suppose there is one computer, windows OS (important cause lot of softwares are windows only). And from this computer there are 4 users who can use it simultaneously.

Take a look at this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MNyTptFRw_w

Also there is a feature for users to share files and share running programs. Sharing program simply requires user to drag window to side and possibly hold some key while doing it and of course sides could be assigned to someone or some other mechanism to decide which user sees that program. Since they all are running one the same hardware all computer has to do is just show it to other user, slide it in and ect. As for sharing file each user would be represented by Hard Drive partition. That only he/she can access...or the admin.

Third important feature would be to just add another desktop into this setup of which resources start getting used. So this should scale like cloud. Unless there is a way to add like 10 cpus, 20 gpus, 400gb ram into single desktop eventually. so you can upgrade if need be.

Fourth, optional, thing should the be ability to set options like reset everything at logout...think library here..user use it leave it..new user comes in everything is back to as it was in beginning.

fifth, optional, a wireless device that acts as wireless adaptor to main cpu and monitor/keyboard/mouse/webcam/usb/speaker/microphone.

So - a keyboard, monitor and mouse for each user. Each set plugging into something. The accessing common software and data. Bit like an office with a server?

And you're talking about a pc that you can keep adding cpus, ram and gpus to. Maybe you could just put them into the box that the keyboard, mouse and monitor are plugged into. Bit like an office and a server.

I think Office and server are ok. Your just adding what is needed as each new user comes into it. And you don't need to invent or pay for the design and manufacture of an open ended pc with endless cpus, gpus and ram that could be added to it.
