Review on πŸ’» Efficiently Manage USB Devices with the Belkin 2x1 USB Peripheral Switch by Tyler Owens

Revainrating 3 out of 5

2X1 switch, the best of the KVM switches

I got this switch from Revain just after one of my printers died and we decided to keep our old HP 1400 on our two desktops for a while to use. and worked fairly well with two computers. One works with XP Pro and the other with Vista. Everything was fine until I hooked up an MP3 player to a Vista machine. My Internet Explorer got stuck in a loop so I had to turn off the machine. I removed the switch as the error message reminded me of it. I uninstalled the switch software. Now everything is fine and the MP3 player works and the printer works and Vista works. The switch is fine, but be careful with computers running Vista. I've mastered Vista for home use, so I'm just getting around that. I would still recommend this Belkin switch for most applications.
