Mouse Without Borders

I used Synergy for several years to run multiple computers & monitors with a single keyboard and mouse.  I stopped because it had trouble with beta (unreleased) Windows products.  Here's one from Microsoft that seems to work better in a Microsoft-only (not cross platform) environment:

SQL 2012 - Books online

Books online for Denali (SQL 2012) can be found here:

Incidentally, any recommendations for a good e-reader?  I would like to use a tablet-style reader to view Microsoft's books online.  Given my collection of iOS devices, an iPad is the obvious first option but I am concerned about eye fatigue with the iPad's glossy screen.  I previously had an original iPad and - while I loved the device - I was never convinced it was a good e-reader.

Amazon's "E Ink" screen could solve the eye fatigue problem but I don't know how well the Kindle's "experimental" web browser would process Microsoft's books online.

And no, reading off the computer screen is not appealing in this case - neck strain, eye fatigue.  I want to use my bifocals and read this like a book!

Suggestions?
