I used a couple a couple years ago, named MasterView or MasterSwitch... They worked really well, but I never tried NT on them. Linux and 9x worked flawlessly (except when the KVM lost power or got shut off. Then you have to bounce Windows or restart X) On Mon, 3 Jun 2002 14:12:05 -0700 Condon

Jerry, Would anyone recommend a KVM brand, modle or other? Belkin makes several that are available and not too pricey. However, you will need to make sure it is compatible. I'm running one 2 CPU model at home, and an OmniView SE 4-Port here at work. I've got a situation that's perfect for
