So buy 2 computers and glue them together. Jesus!hey jason!!
what's up.... i'm playing with something in the back of my mind... basically, i'm considering what might be used as a dual server, where i can have two motherboards running in the same box. kindof a cheap two blade system, with each blade/board with it's own cpu/mem/hard-drive...
i'm considering a usage where i'd be bale to have one board doing apps/functions.. with the other board doing apps/functions that are being remotely tasked via the ethernet/internet...
the whole thing would have to run a modified linux, as i'd want to strip out a bunch of things.... but i'm curious as to if there are any manufacturers that anybody has dealt with who already make this kind of box...
i would imagine with tech/costs being where it is now.. this should be doable... for a reasonable cost ~600-800/box...
thanks....

The only thing close to that would be virtual servers or vmware. Multi-processor systems don't work that way the OS can use the processors to spread the work load not run two separate systems in one box.

hi...
i have a hardware/system issue, and i'm not sure where to turn...
if i have a dual processor system, with dual cpus/harddrives, and 2gig of memory... is there a way to basically run this setup as 2 separate machines...
or does any body know of a system that actually ships as dual motherboards, ie two systems within a single box!!
i'm envisioning a box that would allow me to run two separate apps/os each with their own resources (harddrive/memory/cpu/etc..) i'd like to be able to have the box use a single ethernet/internet connection, with the ability to communicate with both systems as needed...
linux (and linux apps) would be running on both systems...
any ideas/thoughts/comments/etc... i'd really appreciate it if someone has knowledge of a biz that develops these systems...
thanks

Also you might find very usefull a KVM switch to give you that distinct and original impression that you only have one computer.
