I've recently set myself up with a trading system that consists of 2 large displays and 2 laptops and their displays.
I am using both laptops. The first laptop is used mainly to display trading charts, and to develop and upgrade my indicator to NinjaTrader 7. I don't do real trades with NinjaTrader 7, as it is still Beta software.
The second laptop, is used to display trading charts, and to do real trading, using the stable version of NinjaTrader 6.5.
The problem is that it can be very confusing to move between 2 mice and 2 laptop keyboards. So , I Googled for a way of extending a computers laptop and keyboard over to another computer. Essentially, VNC without the display.
The solution that I found was a project called Synergy-Plus. This code allows you to set up your main interface-computer (the one that you sit in front of most of the time), as the server, and another computer as a client. Once, the software is set up, when your mouse hits the left of right edge of you monitor, the mouse and keyboard control jumps over to the other computer and allows you to control its mouse, keyboard and windows.
Synergy-Plus is has really reduced the confusion in the area by allowing me to control both laptops through a single laptop's mouse and keyboard.
Synergy-Plus supports various Operating Systems including Windows, Linux and MAC.
I am currently using it with windows 7 64-bit with no problems so far.

Just one more reason why the K70 RGB is one of the most advanced gaming keyboards the world has ever seen – you can set up any key to trigger a macro. The all-new Corsair Utility Engine (CUE) makes it easy. FPS, MOBA, or even Minecraft… the K70 RGB has it covered. cheap mechanical keyboard
