Review on πŸ” Belkin Flip 2-Port KVM w/Remote (PS/2 Connection) - Convenient Multi-device Control in White by Montez Vazquez

So far, so good. - Computer accessories

So far, so good. I use this to easily switch between a Unix PC (real Unix, not Linux) and a Windows 2003 server. I don't have a mouse with a scroll wheel on my system, so I can't tell if this is a problem or not. I'm a bit taken aback by the guy who said he couldn't figure out how to plug in the toggle switch. There are only 4 ports on the box and 3 of them are mouse/keyboard/monitor. There was a plug and an element for connecting (and the plugs turned out to be the same size). It seems to work fine so far on a Unix PC with Xwindows (which I worried about as it's not listed as supported) and works fine on a Windows box (which is what I expected). I was also surprised that one cable was only about 2 feet long, but with the length of the switch cable it didn't really matter and this allowed me to route all of the other cables under my desk to eliminate desk clutter. I have no complaints.

Pros
  • Nice
Cons
  • Functionality
