Multi Mice........anyone?

I was wondering if it is possible to have more than one mouse
hooked up and operating at the same time. If so, how?

S.W.

[NT...]

I'm not eager to get assimilated by the NT juggernaut, but it may the way to go: more ports, more horsepower ... and I'm gonna end up there anyway. NT with 2 video boards is probably more mainstream than multi-monitor video cards. Might be wiser to avoid getting too quirky with the hardware. The price of those MM cards would pay for a lot of memory to compensate for the NT os.

Perhaps time to spec out a double CPU NT box...

Win NT.....No DOS.....Windows 98 will be the end of the line

mercurycenter.com

>>Since 1981, DOS has been at the core of almost every PC run by Microsoft software; even as the company moved to the heavily graphic, point-and-click operating style of Windows 3.1 and Windows 95, large pieces of DOS code remained just below the surface.

But company officials told an industry conference Wednesday that Windows 98 -- due out in June -- will be the end of the line. From then on, Microsoft will focus on an operating system it pioneered in the early 90s and first peddled to business users: Windows NT.<<
