Many years ago I had a bit of software from a magazine cover disk that allowed you to share your mouse and keyboard between multiple machines across a network. It was unfortunately a limited trial and I have not used it for ages.

Prompted by a friend's tweet to day I tried to find this software again, but instead I found a piece of software called Synergy2 which does the same thing and by the looks of it a bit more with clipboard changing, nice. Plus it's open source, free!

If anyone has had any experience of this software then leave your experiences of it bellow.
