I don't want a keyboard at all on the windows box.
I want the mac mini computer to control the other computer (ideally
either mac or windows).
Not the keyboard to be able to control either computer.
Basically I want the KVM functionality but from either firewire, USB2
or LAN as input rather than Keyboard and mouse as input. Lan to KVM
is expensive from what I can see. I have a rabbit processor board and
can write a PS2 driver with it and spoof a PS2 keyboard but that is a
lot of work and I am oh so lazy......=)
But I guess its time to start coding...
