My links were for the general info for anyone interested. However to be honest re-reading your post I noted your requirements of 2 users on the same PC.

There was a HW board that supported what you are talking about but under Windows and I seem to remember similar under DOS, e.g. in the days of 3270 cards etc. I re-found the Windows one earlier via a forum post but didn't think it would have been of interest to folks here (seemed discontinued anyway).
