Good point about the PS/2 connector. Tho I oughtta let Daniel speak  
for himself, I suspect that he also was thinking that the 6100 isn't  
likely to have a USB port.  IIRC It uses the ADB connectors for the  
key board and mouse. So Jim needs something that the video cables  
plug into..  trouble is tho is that most of the switches I've seen  
for that are pretty pricey.
