So I have a small booth with a 20" monitor (with a VGA input) and wanted to connect both my Mac Mini and XBox. Until recently, the solution was: awkwardly unplugging a clumsy VGA cable and plugging in another (unscrew the retaining latches, pull out, try to align the other cable in the tightest of spaces out of sight, then tighten the latches again). Thing works great: both swell plug into the box and the 3rd cable to the monitor. Ready. Then simply click to select a different monitor. So it might take 3-4 seconds to toggle, but that doesn't mean I don't have time. The only caveat is that the 3 VGA cable connectors pointing straight at the back of the box make the whole unit 50% lower than in the picture (ie no cables). but if that's not a problem or you can get it out of your sight, that's no problem. Remember this is VGA so limit yourself to that quality. Does the picture look worse than without the box? Not for my eyes. And the XBox doesn't seem to suffer either. There is no noticeable increase in latency. Until you can upgrade to HDMI, this is a cheap and easy solution that really makes a world of difference compared to the alternative.
