Thanks for your advice Bob. I will look into getting a hub. Now, to answer

Hi list-
My question may seem to be a little specialized and a non tech
problem. Below is a brief background, but the question that is below
the background should be in the area of general experience... regarding
the use of a USB keyboard to solve my problem. Thanks for your patience
and help.
BTW just a FWIW (For Whatever It's Worth) comment. You can pick up a
3/4-port Ethernet hub for $15 or less. That makes networking even two
computers easier. This is coming from a guy who used a crossover
cable for years to connect even to Performas. But with the price of
hubs so low these days,

To make a new partition on your computer, without reformatting your hard

No, it's not. Virtual PC has to emulate the processor, Classic
