  • Patent number: 5894551
    Abstract: A computer system is provided that allows a user to switch between at least two networks having different levels of security without transferring data between the two networks. The computer system comprises a standard computer which includes a central processing unit (CPU) coupled to a random access memory (RAM), a power supply and a reset switch. The computer is coupled to each of two different network cards, each of which is in turn connected to a separate storage device, such as a hard drive. Each combination of a network card connected to a storage device constitutes a network. As in a standard computer, activating the reset switch reboots the CPU and clears the RAM. A user chooses between the two networks by using a rotary switch, a rocker switch, or a push button switch which activates one of the networks or the reset switch.
