I know "teleport" will work between two Macs, but is there a way to share a keyboard and mouse between a Mac Mini and an older Dell PC? I'm asking because I received a Mac Mini and iPad for Christmas but still need the PC until I get familiar with the Apples and start tranfering stuff to them. I know just enough about computers to be dangerous, viz– I just bought a Logitec MX 5500 Desktop with software for the PC with a USB Bluetooth dongle and it does work with the Mac Mini, but I didn't realize you cannot pair with more than one computer even if the other is off.
My son says I can do it with something called a Bluetooth KVM, is this true?
I can use the same monitor because it has both digital and analog inputs and is easily switchable.

If you have a local network you can use Synergy to share Bluetooth mice and keyboards with up to 5 computers.
Here is a good implementation for Mac and Linux: http://code.google.com/p/quicksynergy/
