KVM Switch

[Joe.Morgan]

Anyone know a good KVM switch for the following scenario:

Got 2 x 17" LCD Screens, 1 PC and 1 Mac. I want to use a might mouse and apple keyboard on both using a KVM switch - ive only used a kvm switch with PCs before with 1 screen not 2.

Suggestions? Now apple mice/keyboard works with the mouse going into the keyboard and the keyboard going into the usb port. Will this work on KVM switch or will it need a normal PC keyboard and mouse? And will a KVm switch work with 2 sceens?

I just stumbled onto this post from a Google search.
I'm trying to find a good KVM switch that can preserve graphics card quality/signal. I've used a few different ones, and a couple really suck for this sort of thing and the video quality is degraded.

I've found this one which may work well for your two monitor situation if you haven't already solved this problem...

I don't particularly put much stock in Belkin products (I'm an IT Manager), but I'd like to see how this one works since I'd like to use dual monitors as well, but what I'm really looking for is a high quality video switching unit. sound would be cool, too.

That was a bit of luck welcome

sure thing.
if you happen to find a place where you can check it out, or find anyone actually using one, be sure to let me know your impression. I'm reluctant to just go around experimentally buying gear like this only to find it's just as crappy as some of the others I've used.
