Synergy: One keyboard (and mouse) to rule them all
If you're one of the many users who has two (or more) computers on your desk, you might get tired of switching between the keyboard and mouse on different systems. KVMs are one solution, but if you'd like to save a few bucks and be able to switch between two or more computers with a flick of the mouse, Synergy is the software for you.
Synergy allows you to use a single keyboard and mouse to control multiple computers running Linux, Mac OS X, Windows, and other operating systems. It also allows you to share clipboards between computers, so you can select text in a program on Linux, and paste it into an application in Windows. Best of all, Synergy is freely available under the GNU General Public License (GPL).
