| 393516 | 2005-10-05 02:05:00 | Hey is it possible to buy a switching devise that enables you to run two totally separate PC’s off 1 monitor, 1 keyboard and 1 mouse?! If so what is it called and where can purchase? Many thanks |

| 393517 | 2005-10-05 02:11:00 | You need a data switch. Available in wide variety. A simple one which will just run the keyboard and screen costs about $27. A version which runs keyboard, mouse and screen can cost over $90. I have another automatic one which allows both macines to address one printer. Probably DSE. | Scouse (83) | ||
