ShareMouse 1.0.42 Beta

ShareMouse 1.0.42 Beta is described as a handy, smart and effective program which is able to share one mouse and keyboard with multiple computers. You just need to move the mouse pointer to the computer you wish to control. When you reach the border of the monitor, the mouse cursor magically jumps to the neighboring monitor and you can then control that computer.

Any computer can be controlled with the mouse and keyboard of any other computer. Unlike an KVM switch, you don’t need to press any button to switch between computers. All mouse and keyboard input is transmitted over your existing Ethernet or Wireless LAN network connection.

No USB switch, KVM switch or any other hardware is required. ShareMouse also allows you to drag & drop files between multiple computers for easy file transfer. ShareMouse additionally shares the clipboard between multiple computers. Whatever you copy into the clipboard of one computer is available in the clipboard of any other computer.

Benefits:

• No more Mouse/Keyboard Juggling - Free up your desktop from multiple input devices. One mouse/keyboard can control all your PCs.
• Comfort - You can remote control all your computers without leaving your seat or switching input devices.
• Productivity - You get instant access to any computer on your desk with a swipe of the mouse cursor.
• Cross-Platform Operation - ShareMouse is compatible with Microsoft Windows and Apple Mac OSX and seamlessly link both "worlds" in a smart manner.
• Wireless Connection - The mouse and keyboard input is transmitted over your existing network connection, even wirelessly.
• No Clutter - No need of a bulky switch box and messy cabling.
• Scaleability - Hardware switches always support a specific maximum number of computers only. ShareMouse, however, supports an unlimited number of computers and monitors.
• Ease of Use - Using ShareMouse does not take you more than dragging the mouse. That's it! Not even a keypress is required. Your hand never leaves the mouse.
• Efficiency - ShareMouse does not need any power supply and makes efficient use of your existing gear.
• Compatibility - Hardware mouse and keyboard switches sometimes have compatibility problems with certain keyboard and mouse brands. ShareMouse works with any mouse and keyboard (as it is connected to the computer that provides compatibility).
• Reliability - Each cable or connection increases the risk of failure. ShareMouse uses your existing gear, thus minimizes the incremental risk of failure.
