2 users on one computer!!!!!

[pat]

Check <A HREF="http://www.machspeed.com/mt_nforce2.htm" target="_new"> this mobo</A>. From what I can understand, if you plug PS2 keyboard and mouse PLUS USB keyboard and mouse, then you can have 2 users sharing the same computer at the same time. it has 2 VGA output. Does that means that 2 kids can surf the internet each one with their own keyboard/mouse/video but only one computer? If that work good, it could allow for some space saving office too...

EDITED: I just notice fom the parts list thet it has a splitter Y for keyboard and mouse...then no need for USB stuff..


Lifetime warranty too... If somebody want to try them, then they are at <A HREF="http://www.tigerdirect.com/applications/SearchTools/item-details.asp?EdpNo=914115&CatId=179" target="_new"> Tigerdirect</A>

That is interesting...great for people that have 2 kids that want a computer but not the budget for two computers.

Although, with only GF4 MX on-board graphics, surfing might be about all you would want to do with it.

XP2800+, Abit NF7, 1GB Dual-Channel DDR333, ATI R9800PRO 128MB, TT PurePower 420W, LG DVD+-R/RW

This mobo costs 2x more than ABIT NF7 and you will need two monitors.

Not so attractive solution. You can buy 2 websurfing PCs with little more money.

What about office stuff..like word processing? One computer, 2 flats screens and keyboard/mouse and that could do the trick...

could be usefull for some light task, and cheap cause you pay only more for the mobo...no need for 2 HDD, cdrw,...and stuff..

There was a board just like that with a $50 instant rebate on Newegg a few weeks ago. It's a neat concept, but I wonder how well it would work.

Never heard of such a feature before... and I read a lot.

If it IS at all possible, it probably would run as good as any server in multi-session environements... Like Terminal Services on a Windows 2K+ Server.

good enough for most office tasks but limited in multimedia and no gaming.

Not new. That article there's almost 3 months old, and pretty sure I actually saw it on a system/motherboard before that review came out.

But how many men can one woman satify?
