www.applica.com
Makes several devices for sharing one computer with multiple users via additional monitors and keyboards.
For example, you could set up one PC with CAD/CAM software on it that uses a security dongle licensed for one user but with this you could set up multiple simaltaneous users that can run that software!
Each users gets their own session on that PC and the software only ever sees the one key that is really, physically there. |

UPDATE:
Even though they have it on their website, they do not make this product anymore. I spoke to them on 12-21-10 and they recommended http://www.ncomputing.com/product-xseries
About $250 for 3 users kit X350.
It comes in 3 types of connections:
1. USB: USB Mouse & Keyboard
2. Ethernet: (anywhere on the network) USB Mouse & Keyboard
3. Cabled to a PCI card: (the best performance) using CAT5 about 30 ft, PS2 mouse & keyboard
All come with the V-Space virtual software.
The host computer can be XP or Windows 7. Licensing is supposed to follow the normal Windows server licensing so MS wants you to purchase pieces of paper that are for RDS or WS.
Order from www.PartStock.com about $180, but distribution also has it, like PC Connection & CDW.
Here are the places you can order from:
PC Connection
$250
Item #: 9642739

CDW

$216

I had an issue and this is the reply from their Tech support:
The terminals rely on software rendering, which is handled at the host and then streamed to the terminals. Hardware acceleration through DirectX is not supported. If the application(s) you're attempting to use have a software rendering mode, that may resolve the issue.
