That's Keyboard,Video,Mouse.

Here's a link to neat little kvm switch to run Two cpu boxes with one keyboard, video mon, mouse, setup.

They are only $33.00 and free shipping.

I have used two of these little beauties for about a year and am very happy with them.
It's an easy cheap way to toggle between two boxes with only one key stroke. (the "scroll lock" key).
Might be something some of you guys might find useful. Lets you say work on your cad stuff on one box while your dncing a program to your machine.
I use mine to do cad/cam work on one box and surf the forums here on the other.:wee:

Great idea!

I'm using 3 - 19" monitors on one cpu (XP) and it works fine so I can watch email on one graphics software on another and CAM software on the third.

This is great if you have one cpu doing some major number crunching and want to do something else.
