We have an Avocent that does that, but, it has an acknowledged bug that regularly triggers a flood of keystrokes when you switch to a different machine and depending on what window is the focus when you switch, can cause strange things to happen. To reiterate, we are looking for a KVM that accepts USB keyboard and mouse, and that connects keyboard and mouse via USB to each computer. AND, most importantly, that actually works! ;-) -- Claude Jones Brunswick, MD, USA
