What's the point of having two keyboards installed? It's not like you have four hands to efficiently use them both at the same time.

If anything, sell the old one, or keep it as a backup just in case you spill something on your new keyboard and kill it.

I'm stupid. Right. I totally could have figured out that not only did you have a cousin, but he or she was at your house from the information you posted earlier.

I still don't see why you'd need two keyboards. Unless, by

for example ill just use it to play it in nba live 2005..
i have a cozin here..

you meant that you would be playing NBA Live 2005 with your cousin on your computer, in which case this whole topic would actually make sense. Having a guest in your home doesn't automagically imply that you suddenly need two computers, and judging from the other responses in this thread, everyone else was thinking along the same lines I was.

But to answer your question, it depends on what you want to do. You'll probably want to find a PS/2 to USB adapter, and then use it to plug both keyboards into a USB Y adapter. That way, you'll be able to switch between keyboards. If you want to use both keyboards concurrently, I'm almost entirely certain that you're out of luck.

Yep. You can. It shouldn't be a problem at all. You can also use two mice, but that gets really crazy.
