Default Categories box. How can I create a new one (or two...)??

Hello

I have been trying to duplicate the categories section because I want to create another box with different style products section on it, but I donīt know what I need to do.
For example:

Categories box 1
Products(20)
Products(10)
Products(15)

Categories box 2
Products(10)
Products(3)
Products(

Categories box 3
Products(3)
Products(6)
Products(1)

With its subsections.

By default, Oscommerce creates one box called Categories where all the products section are viewed.
If I want to create a Pc categories box section, and a Mac categories box section, Oscommerce in the admin panel can not allow do that. Only subcategories.

How can I create a new box for categories, and how can I admin this box in the admin section?.

Any idea?.
I have been using the next help: http://www.oscdox.com/modules.php?op...%20New%20Boxes
but Iīm not sure what I need to do to admin this new box, categories and subcategories in the admin section.
I mean, so I can not control the products and subcategories.

What can I do with that?

Thanks for reading me

Default My suggestion

Make new boxes with help of the exercise available in oscdox guide. Then have a look at catalog/categories.php and admin/categories.php and find out how they are manipulated to display, input and retrive the default categories box. I would prefer to make separate tables for each category of products and link each one of them to the appropriate tables.
Best of luck.
