I have two computers, two monitors, 1 keyboard, and 1 mouse.  I would like to use the same keyboard and mouse on both computers.  Is the KVM switch the only way to get this done, and if so which one should I use?

Ok I have a problem with synergy.  Both of my computers share the same IP address, so I keep getting an error when I try to use the software.  Does anyone know where I can get easy to use instructions?

Ok, so I got the main PC to work but I can't get the second one to work.  I figured out the IP address for the main one which is different to the second one.  But I keep getting a message that says the server timed out.  Any ideas.
