So can I, it's called a KVM switch.Remote desktop is nice, but I find it's a big sluggish. Oh. .. technically none, they sit on a different desk  2 of them.

Right now I have three computers turned on - my new tablet (idling), my jukebox (playing net radio, getting ready to show me movies) and my desktop (that I'm writing this on, and soon running stress tests again).In addition I've got my old laptop plus my old home server (dual Celeron 366  ) and another old Athlon 1.4 Ghz which are all usable if you add the right components. The laptop doesn't need anything, but I need to clean it up and hand it down the ladder  So, that's a total of six computers in my apartment right now, all more or less ready to run. Now on my DESK I only have a single screen, a single mouse and a single keyboard. My monitor has two inputs, so I can easily switch between desktop and jukebox. The jukebox has no keyboard connected, but on my desk is a tiny touchpad I use for playing my media. -------------------- quote:

...I am doing the backend infrastructure for our corporate network. There is 1 domain, 3 subnets and an ACL that has network chatter to ZERO and any machine can download off the net at blistering speeds even when RIS is spitting out multiple images at the same time. It will be awfully quiet when all this is no longer in my kitchen.

Just had to say I added this to my desk this afternoon:
http://www.office.xerox.com/cgi-bin/detail.pl?sku=8400/DP Couldn't go wrong with a $990CDN price (it retails for $2250CDN)
Now to try for my $625 rebate Xerox is offering haha After 1 afternoon I am very much impressed. 6 seconds first page out (color no less!) and 24ppm in b/w & color). [ 06-02-2005: Message edited by: Obsidian ] --------------------
