Synergy lets you easily share a single mouse and keyboard between multiple computers with different operating systems, each with its own display, without special hardware. It's intended for users with multiple computers on their desk since each system uses its own monitor(s). Edit

    I use Synergy quite often as I have my MacBook and PC side by side on my desk every day. Using Synergy is seamless experience, as soon as I boot up my MacBook my PC (synergy server) accepts the MacBook (synergy client) and I'm good to go. Synergykm is a must have front end GUI to Synergy on the Mac.

    Made my life easier and cleared up my desk - one less keyboard & mouse.

    Hmm. Lol, I used the Synergy Half-Life 2 Mod, not this program. Never even heard of it.

    Good program for moving cursor between different computers but NOT trivial to configure out the box.

    This program is great if you have two computers side by side with two monitors. Now you don't have to use switch over to a second keyboard/mouse. It's really buggy however.

    Great for multicomputes, no need for a KVM

    Yeah, I use both Synergy and Synergy Mod (for HL2)... well... I guess this will be including both of them. Well, both are excellent!

    The synergy I'm playing is a mod for Half-Life 2

    Really handy, but I started noticing some weirdness and eventually switched to using XMing. That way Linux and windows apps co-exist and I don't have to devote an entire monitor to one OS.

    Excellent app! Works nicely with Windows 7 build 7100 desktop laptop on almost all apps. When UAC pops up it does not work, also with winrar... Other than that great app.

    Runs in background to sync your mouse/keyboard/clipboard between two or more computers.

    Works wonderfully when configured correctly, but a little troublesome due to the clunky interface for options.
