don't use stardock products since almost every stardock programm f*** up my windows (for example window blinds and object dock). i think stardock tools hunger for ressources to claim world domination and.... woops OT

I've used multiplicity since day 1 of multiboxing and I love it. In the beginning however, it's tough to clear windows firewalls but it's so reliable that I don't have extra mice/keyboards hooked up to my accessory computers aside from my Vetra.
It's a great program IMO and support has been good for this product.

Should try out Multiboxer/Synergy before paying for that product (Links available in this forum in the stickies). I won't go into anything about Stardock in general though due to some of their past dealings :P

srsly, my software (Octopus) is way better than any of the others, tho it may take a little more setup. It outperforms Multibox and Synergy is just a POS, in my non biased opinion!!

I use multibox for controlling 2 pc's.
I would rather spend my money on extra wow-account(s) :) (Currently 3-boxing, but serously thinking of upgrading to 4)

I'm a licensed user of Multiplicity Pro and have only one complaint about it - my ventrilo hotkey quits working after some time. I've got a service ticket open with their devs about it now and they are working on resolving the issue for me.
The company is solid with a great history, while not a free or open source solution they have been around for years and I don't see them going anywhere. Their support is good, however phone support is limited to the work-a-day world so for us home users you have to use e-mail support (which is responsive).
Performance wise it's completely unnoticed, my mouse always transitions between machines flawlessly, I can reboot any of my machines and they always reconnect.
Setup was so simple my mother could have done it.

I'll add my voice to the chorus of people posting support for Multiplicity. I have a fully licensed pro version, a network of mixed XP / Vista / Wired / Wireless machines and have absolutely no problems whatsoever with it.
In fact, I started a thread on their support forum nearly a year ago, asking for "key broadcasting" support, a la Multibox software, but other than a curious inquiry from a dev as to how that would be useful, nothing else came back so I'm still using a hybrid Multiplicity / Multibox / Keyclone (for those rare occasions when I need more than one WoW on a single machine) software setup.

What sounds good about multiplicity is, that copy & paste works between the machines.
Currently I'm using Synergy, not only for multiboxing but everything that I do on my pcs, even work.
But transfering files between all 4 pcs is a pain in the a..!
I think I will check if there is a trial version to test it.

I switched to Octopus and haven't looked back. It did take a night to get set up, but now that there is a tutorial I think it would be simplicity itself.
