Hooking up two computers to one monitor

[BrokenVisage]

I don't have my 19" LCD yet, but the pictures show a DVI and VGA input connector, so I'm thinking since I'll have two computers in the same vicinity and will need to check on torrents and crap on the one when im too lazy to remote desktop to it, is it possible to connect both to the monitor then switch what video to show on the monitor somewhere, or do I physically have to unplug one and plug the other in? The LCD is a Hyundai L90D+. Thanks

just get some sort of video extension cable, and tape it to your desk. You would then unplug one computer and then plug in the other one. Pretty basic, but it beats bending down.

On all 3 lcd's I've owned there is a source button that switches between VGA-DVI.

So hooking to comps up to 1 monitor works out of the box.

You can also buy a kvm switch. I have done that in the past when I wanted to share crt keyboard and mouse between two pc's.

Well this is what the newegg description says under User Controls:

Analog - Brightness,Contrast, H/V-Position, Clock phase, Color Control, Language, Miscellaneous, Auto color Auto Adjustment, Audio

Digital - Brightness,Contrast, Language, Miscellaneous, AUDIO, INPUT SELECT

So do ya think input select would be the swtich Rage refered too?
