I'm 100% with Mike on this one. It would be very useful to run at least two instances of PowerSDR on 1 machine if possible. With the level of CPU usage that I've seeing on recent builds of PowerSDR on my AMD XP3000+ I think that there is plenty of horsepower left to run a second PowerSDR session. Obviously as noted the trick will be keeping the hardware straight.
Perhaps even farther down the road even more that two sessions assuming that enough sound cards of the same type can be made to play nicely together on one machine.
