2 Days ago I ran into 2 guys building a house, I stopped and looked on a bit b/c the house looked great. So after some chit chat one of them said that the other one was his alt and he had one pc. Before I could ask how he did that he poofed. Now my question is: can this be done or was he just talking b/s?

It can be done easily. Just add -multiple to the command line where SL is launched, then restart it. It is pretty rough running two on one machine since it eats up so much memory.
