mulA multiseat, multi-station or multiterminal configuration is a single computer which supports multiple users at the same time. The configuration typically consist of one monitor, keyboard and mouse for each user and may include headphones for some users.
There are different approaches for achieving this. This feature is in brainstorm section of ubuntu.
Multiterminals are also more cost-effective: it is not necessary to buy separate motherboards, microprocessors, RAM, hard disks and other components for each user.
Multiseat has following advantages :

Open userful
OpenUserful is an umbrella project of all of Userful's open source public computing software.
Multiseat Linux provides multiple sets of user interface hardware (monitor/keyboard/mouse/sound etc.) so that multiple people can use one computer box simultaneously and independently. Multi-Station is ideal for libraries, Internet cafes, family home use, classrooms, call centers, and other high density, cost-sensitive environments. Putting two to ten users on one standard PC (instead of individual PCs) quickly creates significant hardware, system administration, and power savings.
Openuserful is hosted on http://sourceforge.net/projects/openuserful/?abmode=1
