There is this free program called Synergy. Essentially it allows you to use 1 keyboard and mouse for multiple PCs at the same time. In my case, I’m controlling 4 PCs with 6 monitors off of one set of keyboard/mouse. You can set it up so when you go left off the screen it takes you to the other monitor (system). This works on desktops and laptops, so you could have your TR (or like) sitting on your desk and control it via your desktop.

Very cool stuff. Very simple to setup…just a network and the free program is all thats needed.

It’s open source and multi-platform.

GOod find.

I’m currently using Remote Desktop Connection to do that with my three computers.  I’ll give that program a shot.

I just purchased a Mac Mini yesterday and would like to use this program with it and my s270. I believe I have everything setup correctly, but apparently I dont. I cannot seem to connect my mac to my pc. I haven’t used a mac in over 12 years, however I did manage to fingure out how to get everything “running”, so I dont know very much about this OS. Any help for a newbie would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Darek

I would post this on their help forum…if I had a mac I would help you out, but I dont.

Thank you very much. I did manage to figure it out myself, using the ip address instead of the hostname. Thanks again for sharing this great program.
