That is cool, but i was thinking allowing the different boxes to all be running completely seperately except for the shared cursor (and keyboard)
Brad Australian - Christian Graus on "Best books for VBscript" A big thick one, so you can whack yourself on the head with it.

An application that let me move my cursor from PC to PC regardless of operating system. I have 3 PCs on one of my desks right now trying to fix them all and i keep grabbing the wrong mouse or thinking that i have 3 monitors on the same machine. It would be awesome to be able to give focus to a particular desktop just by moving my cursor in its direction.

Yup, I'm using it to use my same mouse and keyboard from my vista pc to also control my solaris server screen.

Wow. Thanks for the link. I didn't know I needed it, but I do! At work, I have a network with two WinXP PCs, a Solaris PC, a RedHat PC, and a Knoppix PC. I don't need to tell you how often I type on the wrong keyboard or move the wrong mouse!
Actually, I tried to use it at work (because buying a KVM-Switch is deemed "too expensive", but putting a monitor on every server is standard procedure). I just cannot get it to compile/run on either of the three VAXen. (I love those, btw. Nothing beats versioning built into the file system!), so I have to live with three "holes" in the monitor park ;) Synergy is a brilliant solution for Windows and Linux systems, and hopefully, will be for MacOS as well. I just love it :)

++ Great software. Used it some time ago.
All the label says is that this stuff contains chemicals "... known to the State of California to cause cancer in rats and low-income test subjects."

Such a pity that doesn't work on Mac OS X. I love the idea, more useful to me than Synergy below.

Another commercial option would be multiplicity[^] I'm planning to buy a home laptop Real-Soon-Now and will probably end up trying all this and the other two apps mentioned here (assuming demos/trial ware are available for the commercial ones)

You got me wondering if there is a FS kernel module like this for Linux. Im gonna start googling tonight... If you ever find anything, post it here on CP. I'll do the same :)

Another program that does the job: Multiplicity[^] from Stardock[^] There are supposed to be benefits over synergy, but I'm not qualified to comment. I like the idea of the non-active monitors dimming a bit. It would either be really cool - or a total pain. Iain.

Check out pvponline.com. The cartoonist there mentioned such a max tool that spans from iMac to macBook.
He was a snowflake, like other "unique" snowflakes, falling down, getting stepped on, and pushed aside to disappear.

Thanks Richard. What I need now is Maxvista and Teleport to talk to each other as I have a Windows XP laptop and a Macbook Pro laptop :-D

I have some sheets of paper with data pinned at the wall behind my monitor. And when I want to point out something on this sheets to someone, I always end up trying to move the mouse cursor out of the monitor to the wall ... :rolleyes:
