I have been wondering if it is posible to give Virtual PC its own mouse and
keyboard. So you can have two keyboards and mice but one set of them
compleatly dedicated to Virtual PC.

This way you can have two people on the same computer if you had Duel
monitors. One on the Host computer's OS and one on the Virtual PC's OS.

No, you can't do this.

You can do it, but not with VPC.
