look op using two computers at the same time SOUNDS great but trust me, it's more of a headache than it is worth. maybe you've watched a lot of CUC or CCU (idk what gets you going ) clips. you know what they don't show? just how clumsy and physically awkward the reality is. hope everyone likes cords and elbows where they shouldn't be. what's more, somebody is going to be left out and just sit there while you input into your favourite or you'll be bored watching as their disks are saturated with mutual file transfers. enjoy blowing up your perfectly stable workstation with a bunch of jealous computers

pram posted:whats the most optimal way to share keyboard/mouse between two computers these days. is it still synergy? some kind of bespoke kvm switch setup? well, if you haven't bought both computers yet, make one a MacBook, then there's minimal foot print, as screen, keyboard and trackpad are built in. also in the vain of minimizing footprint is this magic keyboard + trackpad holder that gives you the ergonomics of a MacBook and also works on your lap, I believe: https://bullettrain.com/products/express-keyboard-platform?variant=3508308279336 another option is Bluetooth keyboards that support pairing with multiple devices and switching between them easily. like this one: https://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/multi-device-keyboard-k380 you could use a Bluetooth keyboard like the one above in combination with 2 wired or wireless mice, each attached to one computer. better than using 2 keyboards, given their size. there may also be multi-device Bluetooth mice. all these options not only minimize footprint, but minimize the amount of cables. the other switch-based options are going to require at least 2 more USB cables and possible a power cable and cable for the switch (if there is one). but you haven't said your use case. I'm guessing one is a work computer, otherwise you could just virtualize another machine. there's even software that allows GPU usage in VMs, built for gaming or high-performance tasks. maybe you can contact your job and ask for a disk image instead of a computer (which will likely be enterprise windows with whatever weird configs IT departments do to work computers). return the computer, and ask for a few hundred bucks to get a ThreadRipper + second GPU instead. idk.
