5.0 out of 5 stars Space Saver, June 16, 2003

By	A. K. Kaw "AKK" - See all my reviews

I use two computers - one is a laptop with a docking station (I do not like laptop mouse pad and display)and the other one is a desktop. The desktop is mainly used for easy backups and running outdated software that I still use. To save space that would be taken by an extra monitor, keyboard and mouse; I use the KVM switch.

The installation was a breeze, the cable length is generous for most users. Prssing keys - Scroll lock; Scroll lock followed with 1 or 2 switches me from one computer to the other. It is that easy.

I have not had any problems such as display distortion or low response time. It is a great product.

2.0 out of 5 stars Has problems with wireless keyboards..., January 24, 2004

By A Customer

This product has undocumented problems with Microsoft and Logitech WireLess MultiMedia keyboards (most likely all wireless keyboards), namely the port switching doesn't work (rending it useless).

Shame on Belkin for not reporting this, and shame on them for not providing support for highend keyboards and mice.

1.0 out of 5 stars Very Annoying, November 3, 2005

By	Zink Studios - See all my reviews

The Belkin KVM switcher is probably the most annoying piece of electronics I've ever used in my life. Belkin didn't see fit to make a simple switch to toggle between computers. Instead, they made a device that "thinks." You press the switch button and sometimes it works, and sometimes it doesn't. Many times, I have to hold the switch down for several seconds, then it will switch, but switch back after a few seconds. There have even been times where I had to disconnect the switcher all together, just to get to the other computer, so I could shut it down, rehook up the KVM switch, and restart, so that the KVM switch would recongnize the fact that there is another computer hooked up to it.


This product is worthless to me. I'll be sure to never by another Belkin product again.
