Featured setups

Firmware development, debugging, project management, documentation, and AI-assisted workflows all run here at once, spread across separate machines for good reason.

Synergy connects a MacBook Pro M1 Max on the left to a MacBook Air M4 on the right, with the center monitor and tablet both extending the Air. One split keyboard moves input across both Macs without any manual switching.

Running three separate machines for employment, self-employment, and security testing, but fitting all of it onto a 120 x 60 cm desk means only two run in parallel at a time, with HDMI switches handling the middle displays.

Both machines here run Linux Mint on very different hardware: a Xeon E5-2699 v3 workstation with 128 GB of RAM handling the heavy lifting, and a MacBook Pro running the same OS on its i7. One keyboard and mouse moves between them via Synergy, no input switching needed.

Ten years of Synergy use shows in the comfort level here. The second mouse on the desk is just a fresh-install leftover, soon to be retired once setup is complete and one input rules everything again.

Juggling a MacBook Pro for work, an i7 home lab machine, and a Ryzen 7 9800X3D CAD and gaming build used to mean constant peripheral chaos.

Four machines share this desk, two Macs and two ROG builds, with one keyboard and mouse moving between all of them through Synergy. The handwritten notes taped to the desk edge are a personal touch that no software can replicate.

MacOS 26 on the MacBook Pro alongside Debian on the second machine, with a single Bluetooth keyboard and mouse shared between them through Synergy. The whole thing lives in a busy workshop, surrounded by labeled bins, power tools, and a 3D printer.

The MacBook Pro here is kept purely for AI processing, while the Acer Nitro 5 handles everything else. Synergy shares the Nitro's keyboard and mouse across both machines, so there's no swapping peripherals when work shifts between Windows and macOS.

Three operating systems share one desk here: macOS on an Apple M1, Fedora Linux on the HP laptop, and Windows 11 on the PC. One keyboard and mouse moves across all three via Synergy, no switching required.

Three laptops running side by side, two of them extended onto their own external monitors, all controlled with one keyboard and mouse through Synergy. One set of peripherals covering that many machines means no switching between inputs regardless of which screen needs attention.

Five machines across three operating systems, two Macs, two Linux boxes, and a Windows machine, all sharing one keyboard and mouse. Synergy keeps everything reachable from the same spot without swapping inputs between them.
