Does a DVI KVM Solution Exist?

Posted by Cliff on from the for-those-who-have-$$$-for-more-than-one-LCD dept.

clichekiller asks: "I'm looking for a way to share my Apple 23" LCD between my Dual-G4 and my Athlon PC. I know that I'll need to upgrade my PC video card to one that has a DVI connector on it, but I haven't found a DVI Switch yet. Is there a simple way to share an LCD between two computers? Has anyone managed this between a Mac and a PC? I'd really like to ditch my behemoth 70 lbs. 19" monitor."

    On a side note, I've read your criticisms and have distilled from them the mistakes I made in my initial posting. In the future I will try to post more detailed information.

    Shhh! This type of attitude is unacceptable! If you show any kind of weakness or hesitation, they'll tear you to shreds!

    This is the same Belkin that has browser redirection to ads built into their soho routers?

    And just what is wrong with welcome datacomp ads built into consumer devices?
