New to Dual-Boxing - have questions/need help please!

I play WOW and want to dual box 2 characters.

I have a mac with monitor, keyboard and mouse. That is my main computer that I play on.

I have a laptop PC with mouse and I use the laptop keyboard. That computer is old and I have to turn all WOW settings to the lowest to play WOW.

My set up now is where I can only see the PC if I turn my head away from my main screen. I "could" rearrange my desk to move the PC near the main monitor, but would rather not. Therefore, I would rather not have to worry about looking at the PC screen so much.

My questions are this:

1. What type of software do I need to use to dual box on the mac and pc? The PC will be the slave the mac will be the master.
2. If I use Jamba Addon, do I need any additional software (keystroke manager, something like ISBoxer for the mac, etc?)

Here's what I want to do:

1. Play master character like I normally do, only have the slave mirror the master's moves (i.e., run, accept/turn in quests, mount up, etc). Of course, have the slave cast spells/attack during the fight.

2. Operate the slave and master with one keyboard/mouse

3. Have the set up be easily adaptable so if I'm NOT dual boxing, I don't have to worry about any extra software or anything running and can just play 1 character as normal.

4. This is all for a PVE environment, mostly questing, some dungeons.

5. I will only be dual boxing 2 chars at once, I don't have more accounts and don't want to get anymore.

Can anyone please provide me some insight and direction on where I go next and what to do? I've read a lot of stuff here and on other sites but I feel completely confused and lost.

Thanks!

Also -

Jamba is not a broadcaster, it is an addon. You will still need an actual broadcasting program.

Why not just do both instances of WoW on one system?
