You can buy switch boxes for keyboards. I have one that has inputs for the keyboard and for monitors. I use mine to have one keyboard shared between two machines, but there is no reason it couldn't be used to hook up two keyboards. Is this what you mean or did you want to use both at the same time?<br />

Thanx for your answer. Is it really that easy to use the second keyboard at the same time as to plug it into a ps/2 port !?! In case of a desktop computer do I need any other special hardware or software for the second keyboard ?<br />

You might be able to use a Y connector and take out the timing chip in the second keyboard, but i am not sure this will work, i just think i remembered something like that.<br />
