Synergy-Plus Controls Multiple Systems From A Single Keyboard & Mouse

Windows only: We always had a strong liking for controlling multiple computers with a single keyboard and mouse, and the concept’s still cool, but the software hasn’t updated in while. Synergy-Plus keeps the multi-control party going. As you can see in the screen above, Synergy-Plus offers much the same kind of multi-computer control as the Synergy2 download, but has been adding regular bug fixes and feature tweaks, whereas the original hasn’t seen an update since early 2006. Our setup guide should get anyone who wants to run separate systems on multiple monitors up and running, but the Synergy-Plus fork team has provided its setup guide for those looking for a comprehensive run-down. Synergy-Plus is a free download for Windows systems only; for the Mac and Linux computers you might be controlling, try SynergyKM (Mac OS X) and the platform-independent original on Linux (unless our readers have any more up-to-date suggestions for *nux systems?). Thanks, Tom!
