I know it is possible to do this I just need to know how. If you go to here: http://usera.imagecave.com/Disturbed/dual-...ual-station.jpg
You can see what I am talking about. That is basicly what I want. So that i can have two people on seperate monitors, with seperate keyboards and MICE(grammer correction) running off of one computer. So that I can connect to the Internet using my dial-up, and the person sitting next to me can pull up another browser and tap into my connection. And i want to be able to do this without haveing to set up a network or use two computers. Understand now? So, anybody have a solution?


If you look this link you see almost the same picture as you have :

There is also a link for a 7 day trail version, so you can try if you have the hardware.

Okay guys, I found what I needed. And for all those who don’t know how to do this or would even want to, I am going to tell you how. First of all, if you don’t already have am extra VGA port, you need one of those. Also you need either a PS/2 to USB converter hub for mouse and keyboard or a mouse and keyboard that are both USB and then you just need a USB hub. Once you have those there is a software for windows that costs a hundred dollars(not bad considering) to buy. Now the way this software works is that you can have two to five other computers running off your base computer. But for all the other computers you need enough VGA ports and either PS/2 to USB or a big USB hub with keyboards and mice to go with them. Then once you have them all plugged in and everything, the software has those other computers log in with their own user name and password. But once you do, you can share stuff on the computer, the other computers can do different things simultaneously, and you can share the internet, all with one phone line, and one modem. So it is like having all your computers browsing the web but on one line. So you can have dial-up! Now they also have a package that comes with all the hardware and software you need to hook up two computers, but it is two hundred and fifty dollars. So for the price conscious, the hundred buck one is the best, then you just go get the other parts if you need them. But if you don’t know squat about computers the two hundred fifty isn’t a bad thing to consider.

Here is the web site to get the software. http://www.thinsoftinc.com/
The one without hardware is called BeTwin 2000/XP
Then there is one that is just like it but you can choose between two different packages.
It is called Buddy B-680 Premium/ Lite

Hope somebody finds this helpful.
