yer right dual core, means that it can handle twice as much, not run too OS's

you could do it by running one on a virtual pc.

Try vmware virtual workstation.
It lets you run a virtual PC like vampiro said... i'm not sure if you could map it to a certain monitor though. Mouse and keyboard I dont think would be a problem. :unsure:
