Switch for T61/Mini-Dock and my Desktop?

#1 Post by ltgrady » Tue Jul 08, 2008 3:17 pm

I just got a Mini-Dock and laptop stand for my T61. I love running two monitors while working and I got a new Wireless desktop as well. However, that's all for work and I have a desktop for personal email, music, etc.. That is where my big monitor was connected to up until now.

I really don't want to have to hook one of these systems into the VGA instead of the HDMI connection and I definitely don't want to have two keyboards/mice or have to plug/unplug usb cables every time I want to switch back and forth.

Can anyone recommend or is anyone using any kind of HDMI/usb switch that I can just have a keyboard shortcut to switch from one system to the other? For now I'm going to remote desktop to my desktop but I'd much rather find some kind of hardware solution.

IOgear, Belkin, Gefen

There are plenty of DVI KVMs out there - just google. They are not cheap.
