4 out of 5 stars Very nice KVM with integrated cables........2005-04-28

If you are looking for a nice, low-cost KVM with excellent video quality then this is the one to get. It isn't the cheapest, but I think it is far better than IOgear, Linksys, or Netgear. It's slightly more expensive than those units but you can't beat the video quality. The limitations are obvious in that the unit only supports two CPUs and needs a PS/2 keyboard and mouse.

You can however connect this unit to a USB computer through a PS/2 to USB adapter. I used this to connect my laptop over USB. I initially purchased a PS/2 to USB adapter that did not work. I was able to find one model that did work. I recommend the Tripp Lite KVM Converter USB to PS/2 (Model # B015-000) with this KVM.
