Well ........ separate computers not strictly speaking necessary if our
OS supports multiple simultaneous users (logins). We are just too
accustomed these days to have personal computers. In other words, we
don't use our hardware that way (the device in front of us acting as a
terminal for a login session on a different machine.
Let's ask ---- anybody on our list using their 'nix OS that way
(supporting multiple simultaneous users, each with their own
screen/keyboard/mouse? Bear in mind not all that many decades ago this
is how we all worked.
