(4 out of 5) by M. Garbell on Mar 10, 2006 (California)I have used a few other KVMs, but they were all your standard PS/2 port KVMs. I got a new mouse/keyboard combo that was USB, and my computers didn't recognize them correctly because they were connected via PS/2. After much searching and reading of reviews, I purchased this KVM and it works great. Both my machines, Windows 2000 and Windows XP, recognize the mouse and keyboard as USB now, and I've been able to use all the advbanced feartures of them because of this. The only reason that I've given 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the fact that there is no hot-key switching. Other than that, I would recommend this KVM to anyone.
One of the best swithes i've used

2 port usb KVM switch
(5 out of 5) by frashe on Jul 14, 2007 (Malden, Ma United States)This is just what I needed, I had a cheaper switch but it always seemed to need to be reset. This has solved that problem and more.

No keybard based switching!
(3 out of 5) by Paul Kimelman on Nov 27, 2003 (Alamo, CA USA)This would be a great product, especially for the price, but it does not offer keyboard based switching. Most of these port switchers allow you to press some key combination (like ScrollLock twice) to switch. But, this one only works with the front-panel buttons. This is very inconvienent and a deal killer for me. Be forewarned. If you do not mind having to push a button on a box, it is fine.
