You know what's friggin' awesome? Download Microsoft Garage Mouse without Borders from Official Microsoft Download Center
I've got my much maligned Lenovo Tab2 (Win8.1 32) sitting on my desk behind my keyboard and in front of my dual monitors, and now I can access it with keyboard and mouse plugged into my desktop (Win7 64) so it effectively functions as an additional screen. Albeit with its own processor, network connection, apps, etc. There is very slight lag with the mouse due to the wifi connection, but that only seems to be an issue for the first couple seconds when you first cross over to the second device. It syncs up perfectly after that.
I think I may have permanently damaged the intern with this one.
And yes, the Win8 background is on the Win7 machine
