  Software that can give a PC monitor a split personality!
Time: 00:02 EST/05:02 GMT | News Source: *Linked Within Post* | Posted By: Kenneth van Surksum

They have done this by giving the display monitor a ‘split personality’: while the left hand half of the screen works with one keyboard-mouse combo, the right hand can be controlled by another set.
