Yes you can do it.
It will cost you a lot of memory and a highspeed processor. Download VMWare and install win98 under a WMware screen. If you run pcanywhere on both your pc, and WMware you can see 2 pc's at the same time.
(VMware is a vitual machine software packege that emulates an other pc, running at your pc.)
I hope this will help you.

You can use VNC as well, it is open source. It will allow you to conrol another PC like pcanywhere, just not as functional. On a windows machine (not a true mutiluser OS) Only one person can view the desktop at a time, but you can have several 'sessions' open to many systems and not too bad connection either. good luck.
