Well, I've used a bunch of different KVM systems, and they all suck more or less. I've had far, far better luck using some sort of network-connected virtual desktop (Remote Desktiop, VNC, forwarded X, etc).
If you must go with KVM, I'd suggest keeping an eye out on epay/craigslist for used IP KVMs. Much less cabling to run around. -Pete On Aug 1, 2011, at 2:24 PM, Frank Tkalcevic wrote: > I'm in the process of replacing one central computer with individual atom > based computers inside each electrical cabinet for my router, lathe and soon > mill. > > I'm wondering if anyone is using a KVM (Keyboard/Video/Mouse switch box), > and what to look out for? > What is better, long runs of DVI or VGA?
