It made me think of John Woo, actually. He gets to a computer, puts away his gun, picks up the mouse, puts away his other gun, picks up the other mouse, and starts browsing the web really quickly, clicking links with both hands.

It made me think of playing Lemmings on Amiga in 90s. Two people could play against each other on one screen, each having its own mouse. Well, actually is is even possible to play it in WinUAE in windows XP so XP in fact does have this feature.
