AmigaOS 4: MKShare 1.6
Andy Broad's MKShare is a keyboard and mouse sharing utility for AmigaOS 4 computers available for 5 Pound. The author wrote about it:" If you have more than one OS4 machine and you like to use them at the same time this software enables you to operate all your machines with the same keyboard and mouse. As a bonus Clipboard sharing is thrown in for good luck!"

Two or more machines running AmigaOS 4.0 or higher, (or one machine running AmigaOS 4.0 or higher and a machine running AmigaOS 3.x) connected to te same Local Area Network are required. (snx) (Translation: dr)
