Synergy - Multiple Computers, One Keyboard and Mouse
So you have multiple computers on your desk. Maybe a windows box, a linux box and a mac. Having multiple keyboards and mice sucks, having a KVM switch is a pain in the ass too.
When I worked at Alteon (formerly Flight Safety Boeing) I had a pretty elaborate setup where I had three monitors on my desk. One on a FreeBSD box, one on a Windows box, and one on a Solaris box. I was able to use one keyboard and mouse to transparently jump from computer to computer when I moved my mouse of the edge of one screen.
