A workspace only a geek would love.

Exluding the really messy desk, I'm loving my workspace. Between VNC, a utility called Synergy (http://synergy2.sf.net), and my new found friend ScreenRecycler (http://www.sceenrecycler.com) for the Mac, I am happy. (For windows, you can try http://www.maxivista.com/ for Windows)

VNC is a great utility for remote displaying computers. I use TightVNC on linux and Vine Viewer on the Mac. Via VNC I am able to display my linux servers in Miami locally on my mac in DC.

Synergy is a great little tool tha let's you share one keyboard and mouse with several machines. It works for Linux, Mac, and yes even windows though I never tried it. Synergy let's me use my keyboard and mouse on my Powerbook without any addition hardware, plus it is free.

And today... Today I found a great app for the Mac call ScreenRecycler. SR let's me use a VNC session as a second monitor. Basically on my linux box using a vnc client I connect to my mac. That connection the becomes a second monitor for my mac. If you look closely at the center screen you will see my second mac window, typically I'd have the screen set to full, but for the picture it is better this way.
