Using two desktops at once
Does anybody know a good program which can run two computers at the same time by just using one keyboard and a mouse? I've tried looking on the forums but I have had no luck.

You can run two machines from one by running remote desktop (built in to WinXP pro) on the "host" and then connecting from the other over the network or internet. There are also several programs like gotomypc and others but I have never used them so i cant recommend one. If the machines are right next to each other physically that can be controlled using 1 keyboard, mouse and monitor by using a "KVM switch". It will switch between the two when you need to. The switch will make each pc believe it is still connected to the devices. Hope that helps
