  • Old computer - meet new trick

    Oh wow, this makes me want to get another computer for my desk.  Sure, I've got two monitors now, but they're both hooked to the same computer.  It looks pretty sweet if this program really works like they say it does.  Basically you run a server on each machine and just move your mouse off one screen and onto another, as you would with a multi monitor setup.  Except with this you're actually switching computers and the keyboard and mouse inputs are sent to that box.  Very nice if you're doing some high cpu processing and still want to do things on the other screen.  Although I imagine the differing file systems would drive me temporarily insane (but I got used to two monitors, so I'm not worried) and I don't spose you can drag programs from one screen to another.
