Jim;
I have personally installed this system for a client:
http://www1.ipc.com.sg/html/b200change.html
It is called the  "Buddy"
Basically you install a pci card in a Win9X computer then run regular cat 5
cabling to  a box which you hook up a monitor,keyboard and mouse.
you can run all apps on the "host" computer from the second station.
Works well , only thing that doesn't work is sound on the add-on station
If I recall correctly it costs around $150, plus the cost of a monitor,
keyboard and mouse.
I bought mine thru Vega Technologies Corporation
www.vegatechnologies.com
 but their website isn't working now.

Subject: [PCBUILD] Controlling Computer from 2 Locations


I have a customer who has a computer set up in his office.  He wants to have
a monitor, keyboard and mouse set up outside the office at a customer desk
so he can look up information without having to buy another computer and
network the two systems.  The computer will be controlled from only one
location at a time.  Can someone give me a list of the parts (cables,
switches, etc.) that I would need to set this up.
