Sorry if this question is answered elsewhere, but I couldn't find it. I have had an account since early last year, but haven't been active for a long while. I recently convinced my wife to join up and create her own avatar, but our second computer doesn't meet minimum system requirements to allow us both to play at the same time.
Is there any way to run two instances of SL on the one computer at the same time? Or failing that, is there some way for me to give her Av things (items, cash, landmarks, etc..) while she is offline? I would greatly appreciate any help here!
Also, I had deposited about 1500 L$ in the GOM ATM before my hiatus, and now I see that GOM is gone. Has my money disappeared with it? (yikes, I know, just curious.. lol)
Thanks, Evan Debs

Yes there is and yes you can. http://secondlife.com/tiki/tiki-index.php?page=TechMultiplePCsAs far as inventory, just open her profile then dratg and drop items on it where it says "Drop Inventory Items Here" (or something similar, its rather obvious when you look on the profile)

The -multiple switch

Modify the SL shortcut to say the following:
"c:\program Files\Secondlife\secondlife.exe -multiple"
Now you can run as many instances of SL as your hardware will support using that shortcut.

Whoops, posted the wrong link.. I knew I should have read it before posting. Yeah, -multiple works just fine but you can only use the keyboard and mouse on one at a time.
