Those are single user OS's - how do you expect more than one client to use
it _at_the_same_time_? Or do you mean you only want one connection from each
PC at once?

If the latter then I don't believe squid can enforce this in any way. But
you might be able to achieve your overall objective (presumably restricting
overuse of web access) using delay pools.

See squid.conf and http://squid.nlanr.net/Squid/FAQ/FAQ-19.html#ss19.7
