You might be able to find a switchbox with Mac connectors on it, though that might be more expensive than the VGA box + adapters. Best of all would be a box that lets you switch the keyboard and mouse too. Otherwise you might end up typing the keyboard shortcuts for "select-all" and "delete" on the keyboard of the wrong computer before you know what you're doing. That is, if you plan to have both computers running at the same time. I've typed on the wrong keyboard and clicked with the wrong mouse plenty of times, but haven't done any irreparable damage, knock on plastic. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
