I'm a nnewb to VB so I thought in order to get my question answered I would just ask. I have a tattoo shop which I have 7 monitors in the lobby. Instead of looking through tattoo art in books i have it on the old computer. I built a computer running win 7. I'm trying to run the 7 monitors each running their own web browser and a mouse. Is this possible with VB?

computer specs are

I960
evga classified 4 motherboard
12 gigs of ram
I have 6 8400gs video cards

Thank you for the help

Stephan, why would it not be possible? He has plenty of RAM and monitor connections. If the customers use a mouse and keyboard to browse, then it can be done. Instead of using the default keyboard and mouse VB provides, you can hook each keyboard and mouse to a USB port and send them to the VM. Be aware that if you send all keyboards and mice to one VM or divide them to all VMs, the Host won't have any input left. Using different brands and types would help in identifying the keyboards and mice, but is not a must.
Do note that performance can be low.
