Copying Sim for Dongle

Would it be possible to copy the sim that is in my dongle? I could then get another dongle and run 2 pc's off the one internet bill. Just wondering if this is possible, i'd imagine there would be problems trying to use both at the same time?

You can't do this.
What you need is a MiFi or, if you are at home (you said PCs), then a 'home' 3g Router will be a bit cheaper:

I love my MyFi, couldn't live without it.0

If you copied the sim both the copy and the original would have the same sim number. If they were both active at the same time, both would be cut off as the network servers look for instances of 'sim cloning'.0
