    A great update on the concept presented by Mouse Without Borders - a little more feature-rich, and (so far) a bit more stable as well.

    Mouse without Borders is unstable and works only half of the time. Inout Director is easy to setup and works like a charm.

    A remote screen option is not the same as sharing your mouse+keyboard over multiple PCs
