Okay so I don't have Linux, i honestly don't know much about it. But I have dreamed for a while now of a future in which I could use 2 MMO gaming mice to bring my computer usage to the next level. Now I don't think that most computers would know how to handle 2 mice, and I don't think a single game would either, but if there is any that could, it has to be a Linux right? Is that even theoretically possible? Do you think we could ever have that future?

I've been dreaming of that at least since we had the Wii with its multiple cursors. But not even touch inputs are separate from mouse input. Not sure if multitouch is even available beyond some gestures. Maybe in some special applications.

To me, this is the kind of limitation that we should innovate away from. Computers can be so personalized and we should let the sky be the limit
