- Strengths:
- Allows me to use both my PC and my laptop under a dual monitor configuration, using the one LCD monitor to manually switch between digital and analog. The other panel switches using the KVM. Have to follow the instructions for setting it up so WinXP picks up the KVM and the connected gear correctly. Otherwise, this works great.
- Weaknesses:
- The remote has a limited range. Also, the KVM seems to default to the non-powered input for some reason.
- Summary:
Doesn't work

- Strengths:
- Looks nice and cables all come out of the front which does allow some cable management.
- Weaknesses:
- The wireless button never works and never reconnects, even if the cables are unplugged from the PC.
you have to install their program to allow hotkey switching.
Keyboard and Mouse rarely reconnect to the PC after switching
- Summary:
- Would not recommend this KVM to anyone, doesn't work at all.
