Re "multi user". That's not possible, unless you use Windows terminal software and hook two PC's together! I think Paul meant multitasking (not multiprocessing).

Sonki - Re: "i meant multi user. one cpu two users. is that possible?" This is possible - but not practical for just a a 2-user setup. Citrix Systems sells several products - that allow multiuser access to one server - and the server acts as the "execution" unit. WINFRAME is the product and it runs on Windows NT (Server) and you can have two or more terminals attached to the server. With the current low price of computers, two separate PCs is a simpler approach. ANd if needed, you can network these together for just a few hundred dollars - and a few headaches. Paul
