IOGear 2-PORT USB GCS22U

$28.00 Est. at Amazon

from N/A, www.newegg.com
on top of all that the switch that it comes with is genius because you can hide all your cords at the bottom then put this one thin switch at the top of your desk to toggle between both computers.
from Crazy Taco, www.newegg.com
this switch changes screens very quickly when you hit the button, and because the button is detached (though still connected by cord) from the main unit you can keep it close without cluttering your
from Chris, www.newegg.com
the trigger that comes with the kvm has a superlong, thin cord so you can put it anywhere and it remains discreet.
from maxus, www.newegg.com
the switch makes the process painless and the cord is plenty long enough.price is great compared to other options.
from www.amazon.com
- i love the "remote control" switch -- the switch controlling which computer is "online" is on a separate 3' cord that extends from the main kvm box.

from www.amazon.com
the larger pocket is roomy enough to hold your power cord/power supply, other assorted wires, and a mouse.
from www.amazon.com
a nice size, not too big or too small - just the right size for my (15.4") laptop and a few other things (portfolio, notebook, power cord, etc).
from www.amazon.com
for some people however, this case may provide too little space for power cords, accessories, paperwork, etc.
from www.amazon.com
above those compartments is a single, full width, 3/4 hieight, zippered compartment for cords or other odds and ends.
from www.amazon.com
the rest of the main compartment roomy enough for normal accessories (power cord, portable hd's etc) as long as their not too thick.

IOGear Mini view micro GCS932U 2-port

$111.00 Est. at Amazon

from www.amazon.com
also, i was concerned that the cord length might be too short based on another review.
from no one in particular, www.newegg.com
the cords are plenty long enough too as long as your systems are within a couple of feet of each other...after that it'll be tough.
from GhosT, www.newegg.com
cons: if you boot up a system without it being selected, it will change the resolution to 1024x768 instead of the real setting (in my case 1600x1200) other thoughts: the cables ended up being a
from Falcon, www.newegg.com

Belkin Flip DVI-D KVM and Audio Switch F1DG102D

$155.00 Est. at Amazon

from Edmon, www.newegg.com
switch button is small and has a long cord so it can be placed anywhere.
from 633squadron, www.newegg.com
that may be an xp problem rather than a switch problem.the two cords to the client computers are of unequal length.
from Brad in Texas, www.newegg.com
cons: one of the connection cords to the devices is shorter than the other, which makes perfect sense...if only it were a little longer.
from N/A, www.newegg.com
one other small flaw in the product is one of the dvi/usb/sound cords is about a foot long and the other is about three feet long making it have to sit on my desk.

from www.amazon.com
an external power cord is supplied; though the manufacter states that it's not necessary after initial install, but can help with stability or connection loss prevention.
from www.amazon.com
that forced me to either restart the second computer or force quit the first by pulling out the power cord and restarting it.

like several others have said, it kinda sucks that cords come out all sides - it looks a bit like a spider.
from www.amazon.com
the only issue that i had is that the 4ft cords were a little small for my needs.
from www.amazon.com
first, the cords could be a little longer.
from www.amazon.com
second, the audio cords are shoooort.
from Stephen2 from Akron, OH, clickfrom.buy.com
unless you need longer cords which seem to be proprietary, i don't see how you can go wrong with this switch.

also, sometimes it causes your computer to lock up, even after unplugging the usb cord that comes from this unit.
from Masaka, www.newegg.com
cons: cords should be longer other thoughts: i was originally concerned about using a kvm switch while gaming because of reading previous reviews that said there were issues while pushing
from N/A, www.newegg.com
pros: works right out of the box no problems, switches at the push of button and you dont need a separate power cord..
