Multiple Displays for Multiple Users

Is it possible to use a Mac Pro and connect multiple displays such that each display has its own keyboard/mouse/trackpad controls? One example of this is in a classroom where there is only one Mac Pro, and there are a bunch of displays that act like separate computers, and are individual from one another, but are all still connected to the same Mac Pro.

sorry, NO.


You are describing a Time-Sharing system. MacOS does not provide any such features.


You can attach multiple keyboards if you wish. However, they all provide inputs to the Primary user (at the same time). You can set aside the primary User and have a different user logged in with the original User set aside, but MacOS remains one primary User at a time.
