How I run multiple accounts on old laptop

[TonyAlmeida]

Hello,

I want to share the way that I run multiple Amazon account on an old laptop that broken in half (the LCD display and keyboard are broken cause my wife tried to break it :-))
I have cable Internet and connect direct from the modem to this laptop (no router). This way when the modem see new MAC it will assign a new IP.

1. Made like 25 small partitions (like 20GB/each)
2. Install Windows XP on C:
3. Install LogMeIn and TMAC
4. Use free partition software to clone the C: partition image to the other 24 partitions
5. Modified the Boot.ini to the way you want it boot.
6. Change the Computer ID & MAC ID for each partitions to match your stealths account.
7. On the desktop background I put all the stealth account information there (Email, User, Pass, MAC ID,...)
8. Add the TMAC software to Auto Start. Every time I boot the computer to the account I want and always compare the information BEFORE I open a web browser.

Everything I do is just with in that partition ONLY.

I know most people using Virtual Machine, VMWare but I like an actual OS so it is faster and better.

Cheer,

P.S: Now, I just plug that dumb laptopn in and remote log-in from work with out my lady know it. :-) That is the best part hahahaa

A lot of this stuff isn't practical for most people :/

You honestly don't need any type of additional software or partitions to go stealth! Just create a new computer user with a new ip.. that's it

Thanks for sharing, I enjoyed reading it.

I know that but for a long run you may log-in to the wrong account :-) or you are having the same Computer ID, software installed, font installed. I think I go 1 more step to feel better :-)

The OP's Method is solid, I did something VERY similar about 2 Years ago before I went to VM Ware, MUCH Easier,,Op sounds like he Needs a New Laptop, what with that broken screen,,,,,Maybe even a New Wife, so the New Laptop does not suffer the same fate

I like this old and broken laptop cause no one in the family can mess with it and no one know what is that for :-)

Out of curiosity whats the spec of your laptop?

I wanna have 100+ user accounts on a Macbook Pro, 8GB ram and 256GB SSD HD. I wanna know if thats possible using Mac OS X or will I need a bigger hard drive?

You can use Vmware and install Windows XP Pro with 10gb for each account so that would work fine.

[Kelly441]

Just curious, why so many accounts? That can get quite expensive. At least $25 each for a gift card assuming you get everything else free. That's $2500 to setup that many accounts

It's not $2,500 at one time. I buy gift cards for $4.95 and put $25.00 on it.

Once I use the card for Verification I then spend the money when completed.

I usually buy 6-10 cards at any one time.

The REAL cost is the $4.95 to purchase the card. No biggie.

Tell me if I am wrong but from what I read here you have to leave a balance on their because they check it periodically.

[ghostrider007]

they do check the card eevery once in a while. i got a new credit card once cause old was was lost on account that almost a year old.and then i got an email saying they tried to verify card on file and it didnt go through and they were holding deposit until i updated info. i added my new card and everything was okay but had to wait another two weeks until next disbursement to get paid which really sucked.

[rsot]

They will check the card randomly and ESPECIALLY upon withdrawals - safe to keep 10-20$ on the card if its prepaid...discussed many times

I leave a $5.00 balance. So far all is good.

On the initial $25.00 I'll spend $15.00 to $20.00 right away.

Then file it in a box in my desk.

[Kelly441]

When I signed up it says Amazon would place up to a $4 test charge.

[TonyAlmeida]

Buy card on walmart website cheaper then local store. I think $2.95 activate fee. Free shipping

[Kelly441]

Which card Tony?

Vanilla Visa
