Two Displays With Mac and PC
Friday, August 22nd, 2008
Before I switched to Mac, I had a PC running with 3 displays. I really got used to having all that screen space and after switching I had only one display again.
Few weeks ago I got bored and put my PC up and running again. Currently I use Synergy to share Mac's keyboard and mouse with the PC, but I've always wondered, if you can move your mouse cursor over the other screen, why can't you move application windows?
I came up with a concept where there would be a software that uses Synergy and perhaps VNC-like features together. This software would trick the Mac believing that it has two displays attached when the other display would actually be a software that transfers Mac's other screen view all over to the PC with the client software.
I really don't know if this would be possible, but if Synergy is, why this couldn't be? You might know something that I don't, share your thoughts.
