I have five networked computers and six monitors here. Two are Win 7, two are Vista and one is XP. I run Synergy ( http://synergy-foss.org/ ) on all and, while they all have mice and keyboards, I use the mouse and keyboard from my main system to control all. I simply move the mouse from monitor to monitor and can cut/paste from computer to computer.

It's just one more machine using the appropriate OS to do it's function. I have a KVM and have PowerSDR running with WSPR in a second monitor. I switch focus with a KVM I paid 30 dollars for. I can switch between four computers 3 of which run Linux or dual boot. I have a Logitech USB marble mouse on the PowerDR machine and can make adjustment without changing KVM focus. I love Linux but I also use what works. If I needed a Mac to run PowerSDR I'd buy one. Windows 7 64 works great and PowerSDR is fantastic. How Windows 8 will work we will obviously see but I am not jumping on the upgrade bandwagon just because Windows 8 is going to exist.
