VGA, yes, my Dell LCD has this switch on the front panel and goes
also to S-Video... But have not been game to try it. Should I? In
fact, now I think of it, is this a built in KVM type switch?
I have a professor who does that on a daily basis, on his Dell LCD.
(Actually, he's spoiled, he uses that tactic to switch his *dual*
displays between two systems :-)

This is the sig who says 'Ni!'
That's a good idea considering how much DVI KVM switches cost. Only one
of my main computers would have to suffer VGA ghosting then :)
Why didn't I think of it before! My Belinea 20.1" TFT has DVI & VGA inputs.
