The first incarnation of synergy was CosmoSynergy, created by
|
|
|
|
|
Richard Lee and Adam Feder then at Cosmo Software, Inc., a
|
|
|
|
|
subsidiary of SGI (nee Silicon Graphics, Inc.), at the end of
|
|
|
|
|
1996. They wrote it, and Chris Schoeneman contributed, to
|
|
|
|
|
solve a problem: most of the engineers in Cosmo Software had
|
|
|
|
|
both an Irix and a Windows box on their desks and switchboxes
|
|
|
|
|
were expensive and annoying. CosmoSynergy was a great success
|
|
|
|
|
but Cosmo Software declined to productize it and the company
|
|
|
|
|
was later closed.

Synergy is a from-scratch reimplementation of CosmoSynergy.
|
|
|
|
|
It provides most of the features of the original and adds a
|
|
|
|
|
few improvements.
