not all of us want to sit in a room full of computers. 🙂 unless you get a
switch box you'll have to buy another monitor, which takes up more space,
another keyboard & mouse, etc. for me space is a premium that i am willing
to pay for. i've tried having two computers in the same work area, but it
didn't work for me. 🙂
i wish i had purchased a 3000T instead of a 3000 since the 3000 does not
have enough AT slots to make a bb useful (for me at least). i could have
gotten a bb instead of a 486 tower. i've managed to free up some space buy
getting a switch box so that both computers could share the same keyboard
& monitor. for me it's not a perfect solution (you should see the mess of
cables lurking behind my desk! :D), but it works. so i'll stick with it
since i can not justify the expense of buying a 3000T and bb setup when i
already have something that does the job.
