Was just catching up on Matt Cutts Blog and thought this would be kewl to pass on.

What is Synergy? It’s a program that lets you share a virtual desktop between two different computers. With one mouse and keyboard, you can control two computers, and even move your mouse from one desktop to the other. It’s almost like the computers are welded together.

Now that's a brillant find!

Interesting as the example is XP and Ubuntu. Only diff for me is that I use Vista and I also have some debian boxes (but then I normally use telnet for the debian boxes).

Have you tried it out on your vista box Donna? I'm curious as to whether it works under Vista. If I get a chance I'll try it out tonight.

:edit:

looking through the sourceforge site for synergy it looks like it does in fact support Vista. So reckon I'm going to be able to use it!
