I'm looking for a KVM switch that will allow me to share a USB mouse & keyboard and a monitor (be it VGA, DVI, or ADC) between 2 computers.
These boxes tend to be overpriced, so if anyone knows of a good deal on something like this, please let me know!
Thanks.

If you don't mind using a USB/VGA-only model, I would recommend one from <a href="http://www.compucable.com" target="_blank">CompuCable</a> . I paid about $30 for it and have been very satisfied. The only minor flaw is that the VGA connectors are pretty close together, so there's not much room if your cables have bulky connectors.

I just got an Iogear MiniView USB KVM switch and I love it. It's really small, affordable (with a rebate that I'm hoping to receive soon!) and works perfectly. Check out <a href="http://www.iogear.com." target="_blank">http://www.iogear.com.</a> I think they're still offering the rebate. I bought mine at Fry's, btw.
Good luck.
p.s. I don't work for them or anything

Thanks -- I found CompuCable last night, and CDW sells the USB/VGA box for about $29. I'm satisfied!
