Why Spend More? Works Perfectly. Jan 2, 2006

5/5.0

Pros:

It works! LED on unit shows which machine is active.

Cons:

1920x1440 max resolution. If you need more, you can afford better.

Review: I highly recommend this for anyone who is sick of controlling two computers with two keyboards, two mice, and a monitor capable of two machines.

KVMing without the jargon Mar 28, 2005

5/5.0

Pros:

Sleak and colored well; Easy usage with keyboard; Supports dongles.

Cons:

Auto-mode is near useless; DVI-->Analog connections don't work.

Review: It doesn't get any easier when it comes to KVMs. The complicated and pricey KVMs of the past have just been destroyed by IOGear.

Great KVM switch by IOGear for controlling two systems... Feb 10, 2004

5/5.0

Pros:

Cheap alternative to purchasing an additional keyboard, mouse and monitor.

Cons:

Maybe a wireless switch in the future?

Review: If you need to control two computer systems but don't need a separate keyboard, monitor, and mouse, this is a great item!
