Question #1: I would like to change the font of my menubar (File, Edit, View, etc). I'm aware that TinkerTool does the trick but I'm not sure which of the fonts to change, as there are a selection to choose from. Actually, I did try to change all of them but when I rebooted, the font of the words on the left side (File, View, etc) didn't change, but the font on the right (time, user name) did change.

Question #2: Is there a free alternative to Synergy and M-Beat and other similar apps?
