Slackmaster2K Gone Jun 14, 2000 #2 Yup, a KVM (Keyboard Video Mouse) switch. You should be able to find these at a radio shack or electronics store...maybe a local computer store. Wouldn't take a genius to make one either. I'd pay around $25-50 bucks for the switch and maybe 10-20 bucks for the extra cables. You'll typically find these things in the "Networking" sections of catalouges. Here's some online... http://harbourtownsales.store.com/ http://www.techstore.com/ts/cat.asp?grp=N7 check pricewatch.com ... search for KVM Slackmaster 2000

Jon X New member Jun 15, 2000 #5 Belkin makes a 4 machine KVM for around $80. I don't think it's a cheapy one. That would give the option for quadruple penetration... uh, wait a minute...
