(dual-core amd processor, sli video cards, etc etc) I really want to switch back to a linux os, and would really appreciate if anyone could tell me which one has the ability to run two mice and keyboards on seperate screens. I have seen it done a few times, but have never been able to find out what its called or where to find it. Thanx much

I don't know the current development status of this, but it's called Multi-seat. Here are some links that should help you get on with this setup. But, as you will see from all these links, it might not exactly be a walk in the park. Also, this is more of a Linux-solution than a distro-specific solution, so you can have this on just about any Linux distro of your choice. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiseat https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiseatX#head-2101e5aacc76b7db56a5c259dc0eb36233401128 http://netpatia.blogspot.com/2008/02/multiseat-computer-with-ubuntu-804.html http://www.linuxtoys.org/multiseat/multiseat.html http://linuxagora.com/vbforum/showthread.php?p=3710 http://gentoo-wiki.com/HOWTO_Multiseat_X Cheers!
