My KVM switch just arrived this afternoon. I purchased it for approximately 150 USD including 4 cables (6 ft). It is a Vastech 4-port job I purchased from a company I found on PriceWatch called CableTron. NOTE: I am in no way affiliated with CableTron. The switch claims to support up to 1600x1200 resolution.
I am using a Logitech wireless iTouch keyboard (PS/2), a KDS VS 21/e monitor, and a Logitech USB optical mouse wheel plugged into a USB-PS/2 converter (the switch does PS/2 only).
Here are my findings so far: the mouse resolution is OK, not perfect. Not adjustable. The keyboard support is a little flaky. It took a few seconds for me to be able to select kernels in RedHat's custom lilo, but I was able to before the 5 second timeout. One of my PCs does not seem to like the keyboard emulation. It is a pretty cheap motherboard from some bargain basement PC manufacturer. The BIOS of my ABIT KG7-RAID doesn't recognize it, either, but it at least boots. The other system just hangs.
The beeps it makes when powering on/off are VERY loud. I will probably open up the case to mod the speaker later. Supports keyboard switching or manualy switching, and beeps every time you switch. Standard SCROLL-LOCK SCROLL-LOCK # ENTER combo. The keyboard switching only seems to work when the OS recognizes the keyboard/mouse. It has a 10 second scan feature.
In some modes, I found that my monitor emits an extremely annoying high-pitched squeal. It seems to be OK in normal operation modes, but squealy when booting.
The switch looks fine up to about 1024x768 at 85Hz. Bump it up any more and it starts getting fuzzy. This works OK for me as I am too blind to see anything above this resolution anyway!:)
In summary, it is a pretty good bargain, and seems to work much better with newer systems, but it's definitely not the best switch money can buy. The old adage applies: you get what you pay for.

I've had an agent ask me if my bags have been in my possession since I packed them. I said no twice before I realized they had changed the question on me. This was many years ago, though. I think the agent just liked to have a little fun with people.

You could, but then you have to worry about PAL vs. NTSC as well.
You can indeed use it as a static address. I did exactly what the original poster in this thread did - plugged in my laptop direct, ran their little "configurator" (which prompted me to reboot win2k three times, I'll have you know), and pulled off the 12.x.x.x address. Then I went back into the registry and "fixed" all the "Provided by ATT" crap it put on my IE windows. I have been using the 12.x.x.x on my firewall ever since. Of course, I had to re-create all of my VPNs, but it wasn't too much of a hassle. The thing that really bugs me is that there is no HTTP proxy server anymore. That thing flew!
From the article: When the nanogenerator is injected into the body, it travels through the blood stream until the antibody locks onto a cell and the entire complex moves inside the cell.
The research shows that antibodies are effective delivery agents for selecting cancerous cells. In lab animals, at least.
I installed IE 6 about two weeks ago on my Athlon system at home. After 4 days of clicking "send bug report to Microsoft" crashes, I booted it and went back to 5.5. Without fail, it would crash any time I tried to use it for FTP or HTTP downloads. Hardly ready for prime time, in my opinion.
Consider this from another perspective. If you happen be positively identified (assume falsely) by the system, it is reasonable to assume that you will always be identified positively. So every time you go to the airport, you will be searched.
Spammers are already breaking the law by sending UCE. What makes you think they are going to start obeying this law, especially when it means that they will probably have most of their messages filtered into the trash!?!?!
And filtering an entire country's e-mail is not only ludicrous, but impossible. Spammers have proven themselves to be resourceful enough to get around all kinds of restrictions.
It is true that Athlon outperforms the P4 on current binaries. However, Intel extended the P4 pipeline to 20 stages and optimized its use of cache for recovery of branch mis-predictions. To make use of all of the new optimizations, applications must be recompiled for the SSE2 instruction set.
Applications recompiled for the new instruction set scream. They whip even the llama's ass.
Can't find SSE2 binaries, you say? You should be using Linux and compiling everything yourself, anyway...

Not everybody serves their dot-org like slashdot. Here's the real link : WWW.honeynet.org.

Or maybe they were just trying to keep it from being slashdotted!
At minimum, this touchscreen terminal had better punch out a physical card that can be recounted!
Hmm, having a computer print out a punch card...that sounds like real progress to me!

Unbelievable.
