4.0 out of 5 stars Better than the linksys product, October 14, 2002

This review is from: Belkin F1DB104P OmniView E Series 4-Port KVM Switch (PS2 Only) (Personal Computers)

I reviewed the linksys kvm compared to this one (I own both) and found the universality and ergonomics of the belkin product better (also the belkin product was less expensive). No trackball attachement problems as there were using the linksys (the linksys product dropped clicks, and sometimes failed to recognise the trackball at all), and the belkin product is laid out better in terms of how the cables attach to the unit.

2.0 out of 5 stars Problems with modern mice, January 28, 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Belkin F1DB104P OmniView E Series 4-Port KVM Switch (PS2 Only) (Personal Computers)

I have this device and a 2-port Linksys. Frequently with this one, I get a delay in or totally lose my mouse control when switching between computers. I'm using a MS optical mouse that is natively USB, with a USB-to-PS2 converter attached that could be a problem. Just a warning to those with similar configurations that they may get similar results. The Linksys KVM has no problems with my setup.

5.0 out of 5 stars Would Recommend. Even works with my optical mouse, February 15, 2003

By

This review is from: Belkin F1DB104P OmniView E Series 4-Port KVM Switch (PS2 Only) (Personal Computers)

Very good product - kept going back and forth over Linksys and Belkin and opted for Belkin because in the past I had a problem they responded quickly. Great product - the cords are on the back instead of the side which is convenient and makes it less of an eye sore. Works Great. Can flip back and forth manually or conveniently via alt/numlock and then 1-4.

It says it doesn't support optical mouses - but mine works.. even the scroll feature. I use a MS/Blue Optical mouse.
