2 computers sharing 2 monitors? How?

[pcostanza]

I'm able to use 1 keyboard and mouse to share the monitors of 2 systems by using Synergy. Works great, is free and I get rid of a keyboard and mouse for one system. Simple as moving the mouse from one to other.
But, I want to check into using the 2 monitors together with both systems. I think I need a KVM switch to do this but I'm curious if anyone is doing this and if so, what's the best way.
Ideas anyone?

Doesn't Synergy work with multiple monitors?

Synergy also understands multiple screens attached to the same computer.

Yes, I mentioned I'm using that now but I'd like to be able to move images etc. from one monitor to the next. Can't do that with Synergy, it just shares a keyboard and monitor. Or at least that's what I'm seeing it do.

OK, I must have just misunderstood what you were trying to accomplish...

Sounds like you would need a KVM, but if you have multiple monitors with DVI or HDMI connections, you are looking into the $300 range to get that capability. At least that is what I have seen at Newegg.
