Hi all,

I have a PowerMac, a PC, a 23" Cinema Display, a good wireless kb+mouse combo, and a set of speakers with a single 1/8th" cord. I'm having a tough time finding one box that, with a single unit, can handle DVI ports, USB, and audio, so that I only have to have this one monitor, one kb+mouse and one set of speakers.

Any suggestions?

Thanks!

There are DVI-ready KVMs, and KVMs that handle audio (both ways, some of them!), but finding a KVM that's both DVI-ready AND handles audio is going to be a challenge. Actually the challenge is finding one that you can afford! I've found some in searching that START at about $200 and go up-WAY UP-from there. It may be more cost effective to just have two different consoles...
