Just setup Synergy and am controlling three monitors with one keyboard/mouse - so handy.

it requires that all the computers are connected to each other via TCP/IP networking

It says you pick a host to run it on and any machines added are clients.

Looks cool. Going to try it here, cheers.

Aye. Unless you're sitting next to it, it's not gonna be that useful mind.

If you want to do it remotely, setup a VNC

the server is plugged into my plasma, i use it to play HD films etc. currently have to mess around plugging the keyboard in etc, would be great if it works so i can use the laptop.
