No they dont if the PCs that dont have the physical keyboard and mouse switched to them dont whine about the lack of keyboard and mouse at boot time. Rude-boy Rod is wrong, once again.

Only thing is I see the 2 port versions are cheap enough but the 4 port versions are over $100.00. Kind of pricy for a glorified USB hub. Click to expand... I've seen them at the Trailing Edge in Ottawa, Canada, a couple of months back. But I don't know if they still have them in stock. http://www.tte.ca Yousuf Khan

Not too many of them require it, but a lot can use external power and it tends to solve reliability issues. I won't spend over fifty bucks for a 2 PC KVM. I see the ones with DVI that I would like to buy are well over one hundred bucks. Click to expand... I normally budget $20-$30 per machine, which amortizes out nicely since my current 4-port KVM is at least 8 years old.
