On regular windows you can certainly have multiple kb & mice attached.
At least I've seen it done with two pairs kbs/mice on Ps2 & USB.
Still windows is a single focus, so no multiuser. Terminal services
would allow a second non-graphics intensive session using a thin client
& network but I think remote desktop locks out the local user.
I guess from a multimedia aspect you could get something that used a IR
remote to control mp3 & video as background processes writing to a
second monitor (dual head/tv out). Anything that need kb/mouse input or
grabs focus would still be single user.
Sounds like time for a mythtv playback machine attached to tv & stereo
if all you use it for is watching tv or listening to mp3. Still single
user but covers the major needs.

Are 2 keyboards possible on MCE 2005. I am setting up an MCE computer in the
family room.
First off I guess if someone is super familiar - plz list all the different
type of sharing possible.
Is it possible for someone to be working on the computer, surfing the web,
doing email, wordprocessing, etc while those on the couch can listen to
mp3's or watch hdtv, or watch recorded shows/movies from the couch on the
TV?
Can two keyboards be active at one time so that a keyboard is at the
computer for traditional type applications, and then an MS MCE keyboard is
available to play games, or do group things at the couch?
Guess I need steered in all possible/relevant avenues,
Thanks
