Now THAT is an idea I hadn't thought of - I'm currently using mine via a
USB KVM switch which is pretty workable, but being able to get rid of
the KVM and use something like synergy has some merit.

In fact, now that I think about it, that may solve another problem - and
that is remote management of 3 x Wintendo servers. Currently I use
remote desktop into them, but that always has problems. If synergy could
be used as a replacement... Hmmmmm.....
