Cut&Paste between 2 computers.

Synergy also lets you use just one mouse for the 2 computers. I honestly can't see how this can be done unless the mouse is wireless.
But, as I have 2 computers on my desk, I really want to try this.
I'll write something about how my test went although the fact that both of my mice are wired may cause a problem.

Edit (30-05-08):
Tried this on my two computers (MacBook and Dell desktop 4550) and it works pretty well (even with wired mice -- I was totally wrong on that. It uses a server on one computer to get things moving between the two or more boxes). However, I did have a problem in that the mouse movement in the second screen wasn't great at all. I've reported this in detail in my other blog.
