Hello,
at first sorry for my englisch but i am german.
I ask in the englisch sector because here are more active boxers :D
I have a mac mini and a normal windows computer.
The winows computer only has 3gb ram. I can play 5 chars on the windows computer but sometimes it crashs.
so i want to put one client on the mac.
The 2 computers are in a network.
My question now is :
Is keyclone supportet on a mac ?
or is there in other way ?
(i hope you understand me :D)
greetings

that's what you get for gaming on a Mac. Mac's are for business, myspace, and chatrooms.

Plexer and CloneKeys are the only two that I know of for the Mac (disclaimer: I write Plexer).
No, Keyclone doesn't work on a Mac.

Keyclone runs very well under wine on linux. There is also a wine version available for mac. Check more here (http://wiki.winehq.org/MacOSX). (info note: wine is an app that lets you run native windows software on other platforms such as linux and mac).

You forgot watching porn, which is smoother and more secure on a mac.

You've got 3 options.
1. if your mac mini is an intel based one - install bootcamp and run windows on it.
2. Theres a cross platform piece of software called synergy - there are builds of this that support keybroadcasting - this would not be easy to setup though, its very old now and generally a pain to configure on the mac.
3. Pick up a cheap wireless USB keyboard and 2 receivers and do the broadcasting in hardware. This would probably be the easiest way

Hi,
To all those that say Mac is for business always, I also used to say that until I went to work for Microsoft.
Now that I hate, windows, I pretty much use my mac for everything, which is for the most part all games.
You can add Multilaunchbox to the list of Mac Mulit-Key broadcaster. Currently its free (sort-of). And it supports more then one Mac. I had thought about getting a hold of the owner of KeyClone and see if he would allow me to intergrate MLB in to KeyClone and vice versa. But as there is NO interest at all in MLB I have ditched the idea. Hey more time to work on my Iphone games.
The best suggestion, was already given. Use Bootcamp and boot to Windows, then use KeyClone.
You Can try Synergy, but good luck getting it setup and working cross platform. I got it working, but I am developer and am very comfortable jumping head into Source code and Config files. And I never got it working well.
Good luck with setup. It can be done.
