Default Is it possible for two users in one pc?

Is it possible for two simultaneous users to run different programs with two separate monitors, keyboards, and mice in one computer?

Yes, with Userful’s Desktop Multiplier, it’s possible to set up a single pc with 2 separate monitors, keyboards and mice where two users can run different programs. It only runs on Linux Operating System and not in Windows. With the right amount of hardware, you can set up multiple completely separate interfaces to the same computer with Linux (or any UNIX). This feature has been available for years. Once set up, all applications would work within each session properly unless the application has been designed specifically not to. Windows, on the other hand, has been primarily designed as a single user desktop system.
