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.
