It's a great mouse and I'd hate to have to "downgrade" to get the scroll wheel to work... :-) Ken Ray Sons of Thunder Software, Inc.

The only thing I've run into is that it seems to work better if a PC running Windows is the server and Macs are the clients; although I'm running it right now with a MacBookPro as a server, an old iMac and a Windows XP PC as clients, and the only thing I'm running into is that when I use the scroll wheel on my Logitech Revolution MX mouse, the cursor jumps over to the PC.

Synergy is a good solution for multiple machines, though it hasn't been updated for a while (2006?). Would be nice if the ability to copy bitmaps across clipboards was fixed, but otherwise it works well.

Well, if it was just Macs, you could try ScreenRecycler (http://www.screenrecycler.com/home.html), and if it was just PCs, you could use MaxiVista (http://www.maxivista.com/). But for mixed OSes, you can use Synergy (http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/) - supports Windows 95+, Mac OS X 10.2+, and Unix X11 rev 4+. Haven't done much with it myself, but I understand that Synergy is really sweet... Ken Ray Sons of Thunder Software, Inc.

[OT] Universal Keyboard Option?
Hi List: Not completely off topic... I'm wondering if anyone has a recommendation for using a single keyboard in a Mac/Win cross platform setup -- in other words, using one keyboard for data entry on two different computers (Mac/Win). I seem to recall hearing about some solution many years ago that would handle this, but can't recall what it was. (BTW, I'm not looking for a KVM switch to switch between 2 systems, but rather a software or hardware solution that allows one keyboard to enter data on either system.) Any suggestions?
