Synergy is free and open source software for sharing one mouse and keyboard between multiple computers and it Works on Windows, Mac OS X and Linux



I've known about Synergy, for quite a few years now. But, I have a USB KVM Switch. That I use for my Multi-PC Setups. So, I haven't really needed a Software Solution for this, in the past. But, My KVM, only has 4 Ports and I do find my self. Wishing that I had more, quite often, these days. I ran across an article about Synergy, today. And now it supports Windows, Linux (my Favorite OS) and Mac. And it's in my Fedora Repos too. So, I'm taking another look. Check out what Synergy can do now...
