    Need advice on a 4 port KVM...

    Bought some piece of shit off of eBay and I have to replace it of course, so anyone who has had good experiences with any KVMs please post links to the product.

    I need it to be able to support at least 1600x1200, not cause my wireless keyboards/mouses freak out every time it does a scan and not be a complete hunk of shit all around.

    Suggestions?

          I've had a Belkin Omniview for a few years now, and it has been reliable. Try www.belkin.com ("KVM" link on the left) or click here for a few in their SOHO series that are 4-port models.

          A search at www.pricewatch.com might be wise, too.
          I buy good domain names. Send lists to George (at) LOFFS.com

              This is the second time that a Belkin Omniview has been suggested to me, I just have to find a place that'll ship to Canada if I decide on that route. Will check out pricewatch, thanks.

                      Our patented VSE Video Signal Enhancement® technology provides rich, 32-bit color at resolutions up to 1920 x 1440 it appears that it does the trick, price isn't bad either. Let's hope it supports my mouse now.

                                      I ordered one of those badboys from TigerDirect.ca (The site you linked me to wanted $60 US for delivery?!?!). I'm just about ready to throw my Logitech wireless keyboard/mouse combo out the window and get the one with the fucking rechargable cradle.. Of course, they didn't come out until 2 weeks after I'd bought mine. I go through batteries like nobody's business, why the fuck does it need the blinking red light?!?!?!?

                                          I use a 6 port KVM Switch, got it from eBay for $14.00

                                          Guy said he bought it and didnt know how to work it, it works like a charm...
