Thought I'd share this NEAT keyboard+mouse share program

[Labarr]

Figured I'd make a quick thread in here. Seems appropriate since many students are going back to school (like me).

I am going to sound like some sort of salesman, but I really find this helpful... This has been out for about a year(?) and I am just now finding it....

 

For my setup, I have my Main laptop. a older laptop for school and a 2nd monitor hooked up to my main laptop.

However, this software works for any sort of config up to 4 different machines(monitors don't need count)

 

What it does is allow you to do use ONE keyboard and ONE mouse for up to 4 machines. So kinda like how a 2nd monitor works. when you bring your cursor from the main display to the 2nd monitor, it just appears on the 2nd monitor. Same concept, but with machines!

 

 

Its super helpful because

1)Only need 1 of each input device!

2)You can also drag files between screens!

3)Easy to install.

seems very neat if you have multiple laptops. personally i just use micrsofts OneDrive. for some reason i have 1,5 TB of storage there. (should be like 5GB free)

i just actively save the document in there. but i do infact see the potentional within this.
