From what I found on their website, you'd have to pay for 5 separate licenses in order to use the feature to connect to each other.

Has anybody used this successfully with multiple PC's, or is Synergy currently better for this? I liked the idea that keyclone could map a mouse click to a button, so you could /target an NPC and hit the button that rightclick is mapped to in order to open the NPC dialogue with your "alt" characters. Once that dialogue is open, you can have macros to RepairAll() and even have macros to sell certain items. Has anyone done this?

On three machines (the main one runs 3 WoWs and the other two run 1 WoW each) I'm currently using Multibox just to be able to use one mouse, and Keyclone on each machine to pass keys.

Multibox of course can also pass keys but I have that turned off and use Keyclone for passing keys and its nice features like round-robin.

It works very well, though there is still that problem with Multibox sometimes skipping over the middle screen. I've just learned to deal with it as I really like using just one mouse. Maybe that will be fixed one day.

Also if Keyclone's server goes down I can turn key passing back on with Multibox and at least play three of my characters, one each on each PC.

for moving between PC's I've found Synergy to be much more effective.

Keyclone just allows for broadcasting of keystrokes to the same pc or others, not mouse movement. At the moment anyways.

keyclone gots an option to broadcast mouse klicks / movements , but only acros computers and not 5 clients on 1 computer.

don't use the mouse click passing with wow (i should remove it) ... it just looks crappy.

the mouse mapping works fine
