Maneadrian76,

Have a look through these:
<a target="_blank" href=http://www.google.com/search?q=multi+platform+remote+control+Macintosh%2 BPC&btnG=Google+Search&hl=en&lr=&ie=ISO-8859-1>Multi Platform Remote Control - PC & Mac</a>

Here are two examples I saw:
<a target="_blank" href=http://www.bomara.com/Cybex/4xP.htm>AutoBoot Commander 4xP KVM Switch </a>
<font color=blue>Multiplatform:
"The 4xP KVM Switch simultaneously supports any combination of PC, Macintosh, Sun, RS/6000, Silicon Graphics, DEC Alpha and Hewlett Packard computers. Use any platform's keyboard, monitor and mouse to access any computer in the system, and switch seamlessly across platforms."</font color=blue>

<a target="_blank" href=http://www.bomara.com/Cybex/1xP.htm>AutoBoot Commander 1xP KVM Switch</a>
<font color=blue>"Access and control up to four PC, Macintosh and Sun computers from a central location with the AutoBoot Commander 1xP KVM Switch!"</font color=blue>

I hope you are able to find something that does what you need.

Just on a hunch, I did this search</font color=blue>[/b] (http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=macintosh+vnc>[b]<font) and came up with quite a few sites that appear to be working on a Mac version of VNC, an open source remote control package.

VNC is small and effective.

VNC works well, is free!, and is supposed to work across platforms (I can only vouch for it on windoze). Some have complained about latency issues, but I've found it speedy enuff on a p2p network.
