Microsoft offers two people to sit on the PC

In the Indian R & D division, Microsoft invented a new technology that allows the monitor to be divided into two independent parts, so that two people can easily work on one PC: one on the right half of the monitor, the other on the left.

Of course, not only the monitor is divided into two parts, but all other computer resources, including two copies of the Windows operating system with two cursors, support for two keyboards and two sets of applications, are loaded. Each user can “climb” the cursor on someone else’s half and help his partner in work.



First of all, the new technology is designed for low-income educational institutions and state-owned enterprises in developing countries. It is assumed that they can not afford a full set of equipment, and therefore are forced to plant two or three people for one computer. This is often found in Russian schools.

On the other hand, this technology may also be enjoyed by other categories of users. For example, fans of extreme programming, who are known to work in pairs.

Not only programming, but also other work is conveniently done in twos. Moreover, Microsoft technology allows you to move the cursor from one screen to another and edit other people's texts, so this is a complete group work.
