Hi, a long time ago there was a therad about a tiny utility that allowed me to cross my cursor from one computer to another in a network. I mean, I have my main computer with my mouse but I could move the cursor to control the computer next to mine.

Does anybody remember the name of that utility? it was for Mac and PC.

Thanx

Ooooh, good question... I know exactly what you're talking about, but have no idea what it's called.

Probably so. I use Synergy sometimes to control my PC, which has it's own monitor, but usually not it's own keyboard and mouse. It works really well.

No problem. I really haven't had a use for it, as I don't have two computers/monitors right next to each other, but I really wish I did! Looks like a great app.
