Windows XP to see double | CNET News.com

Windows XP to see double | CNET News.com "Microsoft plans to retool its Windows XP operating system so that two people can run applications on the same machine concurrently, an important step toward the company's goal of transforming the PC into a home entertainment center."

To be precise, they'll fix the Windows XP/Smart Display kludge. You can already run concurrent users+apps on Windows XP, just not via Smart Display; the problem is in input/output device management, not multi-user multi-tasking.
