OT:Dual Function Keyboard

Am looking for a keyboard that can control 2 computers, possibly by a switch. -- Mike Grandy www.precision-racing.com

They make switches for that. Check belkin or any of the other places like that. I've never seen a kb that will control more than one pc, but they might exist. Most places will use 1 monitor, 1 mouse, and 1 kb to control several servers by using the above metnioned switches. -- Biz "Don't touch that please, your primitive intellect wouldn't understand alloys and compositions and,......things with molecular structures,....and the....." - Ash Mike Grandy <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:lYnp8.48317$8%[email hidden]... > Am looking for a keyboard that can control 2 computers, possibly by a > switch. > > -- > Mike Grandy > www.precision-racing.com > >

KVM switch. And if you are only wanting to use the keyboard, (i.e. already have 2 monitors), just getting another keyboard is a whole lot cheaper. Last I checked kvm switches were about $150.

There's a company called Hawking that produces a low end one for about CAN$90, it also comes with the extra cables that you'll need. Worth a look. Dale.
