A friend has moved to town and has asked for some help
setting up her MAC and PC, She just bought a ViewSonic LCD
that is MAC and PC compatible. Space is limited. Any
recommendations on brand or model of KVM to connect to both
computers, sorry don't know yet which model MAC or OS she's
running.

She will also be getting a cable modem and a router, and
probably a printer server in the router to connect her laser
and inkjet.

Any special issues with the MAC and PC sharing a desk space?
 
Thanks. Belkin is one on the name brands I've been look at.
Do you know of any issues or driver problems with a Mac and
Windows platforms through the KVM?

Thanks for the link.

Thanks everyone.


message | You might also check out Black Box at www.blackbox.com.
They are more
