You know what would be cool...

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.

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.

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

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:

I hear you! Even worse: When I take screenshots of possible error messages for my docs, or receive error messages from users as screenshots, I always end up trying to click the message away after I am done with it. Always!

Depends what you're doing. At higher resolutions VNC can take a significant percentage of the serving machines CPU time. I imagine a software KM switch would have much lower overhead if you're doing anything computationally intensive.

All i need is a mouse that is better at my job then i am.
Brad Australian - bryce on "Problems with Code Project" *sigh* Maunder's been coding again...
> "a mouse that is better at my job then i am" You realise of course that mice can't program or do any sort of computer work at all?
