Yes. But Garage probably stole the idea.

Synergy isn't very developed but they do have an extensive roadmap, which Microsoft seems to have copied and implemented. This doesn't make them innovative, just coping a good idea.
Maybe if this run on OS X I'd use it, but I'll stick to my separate Mouse/Keyboards for now. Btw, back in the day, I did love Synergy.
- xpaulbettsx 15y agoSynergy's been around for years and is still difficult to use. Ideas that don't have good execution aren't worth anything to users.
- marshray 15y agoSure, but don't go around acting like you innovated the thing. The MS blog post doesn't even acknowledge the existence of the other projects that have gone before. Given the $B++ MS has sunk into Windows development over the years it seems a little embarrassing for them to bragging about ripping off Synergy (and adding file transfer and daily phone-home to Bing). Actually, I consider the lack of file transfer and Bing integration bonus security features.
