Sort of works.......2006-03-07

The product works haphazardly. I use a desktop and laptop with a port replicator. For the first two weeks it would switch OK when you hit the numlock key twice. Now it will only switch to the laptop if the desktop is off. I have not been able to figure out why that is, and tech support is non-existent.

In addition, the speaker hookups are buzzy, possibly because they aren't shielded (or, if they are, not very well).

So, for about two weeks it was great. Since it stopped being great for no apparent reason, I'm crossing my fingers and hoping it will start again at some point. In the meantime, any suggestions for a USB KVM switch that works would be welcome.
