Mouse
For the mouse to work accurately, all systems must have identical mouse drivers,
identical desktops (that is, identically placed icons), and identical video resolutions.
In addition, the mouse must be in exactly the same place on all screens. Because
these conditions are extremely difficult to achieve, broadcasting mouse movement to
multiple systems may have unpredictable results.
The console switch attempts to send keystrokes and mouse movements to the
selected computers simultaneously; however, some computers may inhibit and thus
delay the transmission.
