Microsoft Invents Split Screen PC

Again got this from slashdot. One of the nice features. Sometimes when working with my friends (parallel programming), I'll be thinking what if we had two keyboards connected to a machine. I tried it once :), connecting two keyboards on both linux and windows boxes. Both OS accepted inputs from both the keyboards simultaneously. Thought about what if they accepted inputs for different applications. ie. Each application receiving inputs from each keyboard. :)

Now Microsoft has come up with a software that splits a computer screen in two halves, each side with its own operating system, desktop, applications, cursor and keyboard. Really a cool software from M$.
