Pros: sounded like a good idea Cons: Could not get unit to work with my DVI-D monitor from Newegg.com Pros: Converts a digital signal to analog. Cons: This has no digital output. from Newegg.com Pros: Good price for DVI KVM. Works with Linux and wireless keyboard/mouse. from Newegg.com Pros: DVI switching and inexpensive. Cables are plenty long enough, sturdy, and well shielded, much better quality than you get with the "built-in cable" style switchers. from Newegg.com Pros: Simple to set up, does the job well. This unit works just fine with DVI-D cables and hardware. from Newegg.com Product works, if you just want to use it for pc's... Cons: Hooked up to both my pc and ps3. Did not work with ps3. Worked decently on the pc. from Newegg.com Pros: This product works like a dream. You might have to purchase a couple USB to PS/2 converters if you're trying to hook a laptop up. from Newegg.com Pros: It looked fine, but as a lawyer once told me, the devil is in the details. READ THE SPECS. from Newegg.com Pros: Simple, basic, and reliable. Been using this unit for over 6 months now. Will work with PS/2-USB adapters, can power long cable runs, and handles both DVI-D and DVI-I. Good choice for small office/home office. from Newegg.com Pros: It switches the audio Cons: 1) The provided DVI cables have extra pins preveting it from being able to plug into the DVI out jack of my computer; 2) The keyboard and mouse switch will not connect either way - it is like booting up without a keyboard nor a mouse. Other Thoughts: It didn't work for me and it wasted a lot of my time trying to set it up and somehow make it work. from Newegg.com
