Dear Russell;
I used a simple KVM switch that I got at buy.com:
http://www.buy.com/retail/product.asp?sku=10333399&loc=101&sp=1
I used it between a Macintosh G4 Quicksilver and my Dell PC, sharing a
single keyboard, mouse, and monitor. The only thing I lost was the
multimedia buttons on the keyboard and the scroll on the mouse after I'd
performed my first switch. I was using a standard PC monitor, know, I take
that back. I was using a Dell 15-inch flat panel monitor to run both
machines and a Logitech Cordless keyboard and mouse.
I hope this helps...
Valerie
