Twin towers with one set of inputs

I've noticed that the size of this unit is an issue. This is not a connector for tapping multiple USB devices. It is designed for launching two towers. If, like me, you use a Mac and a PC at the same desk, you know what I'm talking about! That means two keyboards, two mice (mice?) and, if you're an artist, two drawing tablets. If you want to edit videos from PC to Mac and vice versa, then this is for you. A simple hotkey or push of a button allows me to run Vegas and Garage Band at the sameโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Not cheap but decent
Cons
  • Nothing

Good, but. good for external components

I am sure that there will be other reviews that can really deal with the technical data of this device. It's really not my area of expertise. The first thing that struck me about this device is its size. It's a lot bigger and heavier than I expected. This can be an issue if your job requires you to be mobile and you need to lug your gear around. Apart from that it works fine. I recommend this if size is not an issue for you. Thank you for taking the time to read this review. I hope theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Almost everything is included

Pretty solid box, best in external components

This box looks pretty solid and has all the connectors I need. Just to emphasize this is a DVI box so make sure you have DVI connections. The SIIG 2-Port Dual Channel DVI KVM Switch is a reliable and quality product for anyone looking to save time and money while running their business. The switcher accepts both DVI and component signals for a seamless transition from one monitor to the next. It is also packed with a variety of user-friendly features that make it quick and easy to set up andโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Glitter
Cons
  • Has issues

It is big. That is hard. It works.

This KVM switch is designed to share a display with a DVI connection with two other computers. The computers must also have a DVI connection. This switch lets you use a keyboard, mouse, display, and anything else plugged into the box between two different computers without having to switch everything manually. This switch is big and heavy. I have another KVM switch that can connect to four computers and is lighter than this one. I don't know if that means it's hard or if someone hasn't bothered

Pros
  • Wide Range
Cons
  • Zero
