2 cursors..I never heard of that for Windows. I guess you have to 'tweak' the operating system to get 2 cursors.

Two pointing devices in Win95

Street Walker, There was a post on one of the tech sites about a month ago. The site is down today so I can not copy the post but I can paraphrase.

Many people are not aware of the fact that Win95 supports two pointing devices. He said all you have to do is install the second device in an available port ( com 1 or com 2 if the PS2 port is where your first mouse is)

I posted a reply and asked for clarification. I asked if this meant two cursors on the screen at the same time. He never answered back.

Your trading machine

I have always opted for top of the line machines. I work with a guy who buys bargain machines (home applications) at about 1/2 of what I pay. I have always thought that he got the better deal.

With dollars on the line (work environment) I have always strived for high end machines as well. It is hard to get what I need as too many people are making decisions without having direct knowledge of system requirements. I believe that productivity suffers more than the savings realized in hardware costs.
