2 computer KVM switch box

What is a good 2 computer KVM switch box to buy? Is brand name really important? i see them around 50 on ibuyer....

The quality of the cables is very important to lessen video signal loss. I use Linksys's 2-port switch without problems.

Do any of the KVMs also include a printer switch?

I've never seen any with a printer switch, but I've heard good things about the Belkin SOHO series of KVMs. They even have USB support.

chiwawa626,

There is a good review of KVM switches at : TomsHardware.

Wish I would have read it before purchasing my D-Link two port,........... but I saved some $$$ because I would have definately gone for the Belkin Omni-View w/USB and Audio ..............nice but spendy!!!
