![]() I probably won’t be much help here - sorry, In fact the whole reason I clicked on this post was that seeing the name was such a blast from the past. I haven’t even used Synergy in probably 10+ years. You configure how each screen is positioned relative to the others, and then switching from one system to another is just a matter of sliding your mouse off the edge of one monitor and over to the adjacent one. Instead, with Synergy you can use multiple computers to control multiple computers with multiple monitors using a single set of input devices, just as if the separate screens are connected as multiple displays on the same system. Synergy does the same thing with your input, but it doesn’t bring the remote video back in the other direction. Normal remote desktop lets you operate multiple computers from a single workstation - it transmits input from your local keyboard and mouse, and receives a feed of the other system’s GUI so it can be shown on the local display. (I’m probably going to come off like some sort of paid advertisement, so let me just say up front that I have no ties at all to the Synergy project, I’m just someone who’s impressed by clever ideas.) ![]() The genius thing about Synergy, it changes one little thing that changes everything.
