It allows you to, and I quote, &ldquo;easily share a single mouse and keyboard between multiple computers with different operating systems, each with its own display, without special hardware&rdquo;. Yes, your could use Linux, Windows or Mac OS. I&rsquo;m only using it between to Ubuntu machines, so share your eXPerience if your using Linux and Windows for example.</p> <p>Check <a href="http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/about.html">here</a> a little animation.</p> <p>After you install and setup Synergy you only need to move your mouse to the right, left, up or down of your monitor (according to your setup) and your automatically gain control of the other machine. Now your mouse and keyboard will work there. To return to the main machine do the opposite.</p>
