Pros: Ease of connection and cables are supplied. Cons: USB ports burned out in 6 weeks. from Newegg.com I bought this one in a couple of weeks ago. The first two weeks works very well. Starting last week, the switch will loose connection for the USB keyboard and mouser after you switch between 2 computers. Especially after one of the PC went to screen saver mode. from Amazon.com It only took a few mintues to set up and most of that was cleaning off my desk. Cons: Like several others have said, it kinda sucks that cords come out all sides - it looks a bit like a spider. The thing is tinier than the photos make it look. from Amazon.com Linksys EtherFast Cable/DSL Router with 4-Port 10/100 Switch (BEFSR41) It is a good product. Easy to connect just follow instructions. from Amazon.com I bought this KVM switch to work with my computers 1 having windows XP and the other having Windows Server 2008. After I hooked up this switch, I was able to switch from XP to Windows server 2008 computer but when I tried to switch from Windows server 2008 to Windows XP- the monitor shows the display but the mouse/keyboard never worked.. from Amazon.com TRENDnet TK-209K 2-Port USB KVM Switch Kit with Audio (Includes 2x KVM Cables) Wow! This device performed as advertised and required nothing extra. from Amazon.com This is a great little gadget. It lets you set up 2 cpus to one monitor, mouse, keybpard, speakers, amd mic. Great for doing stuff on your own cpu and setting uo another cpu for others. from Amazon.com Installs easily. Works as advertised. A and B switch to control 2 pc's. In an effort to minimize the size of the box, the placement of the ports makes it awkward to place on the desktop without some cables getting in your way. from Amazon.com My computer monitor it's my TV and I needed one more VGA port to plug my Dreamcast videogame. For my dreamcast I was using the regular AV conector on my TV, but this is an old system, the image quality on HDTV isn't good as 480i tvs, so I decided to buy the VGA adapter for my dreamcast which output the best picture quality out of it, although I was using the TV's VGA port for my computer, so I tried this TRENDnet device and works beautifully. The only problem that I had was that this device has no power adapter, the power needed to work come from the USB connected on your computer, but the dreamcast doesn't have any USB port. In order to play my dreamcast using this device, I had also to power the computer to give power to the device. from Amazon.com I bought this in February 09 and the USB ports burned out/stopped working while switching between computers in May 09. I noticed another vendor site with user ratings has a rash of negative reviews starting earlier in 2009 on a product that had been favorably reviewed during 2008. from Amazon.com
