Where to obtain a manual keyboard/mouse switch box?

[IgoByte]

Hi folks,

I need a cheap manual keyboard/mouse switch box (just two ports each). This works on a similar principle as a KVM switch, which I'm sure everyone here knows about, but it doesn't have the monitor part and is manual, which means that there is a knob on the front of the device that needs to be turned in order to switch between two PCs.

I can find manual switch boxes for printers, RJ45, RJ11, USB etc., but nothing for PS2.
I'm guessing that the USB switch would do, as my keyboard and mouse are both USB devices, but I'm a little unsure of that (have to still check that out).

My question, obviously: Does anyone know where to obtain the kind of switch I need or does anyone have any advice on the issue?

Thanks

This is all I can find, but you'd have 2 convert your USB connections to PS/2...BTW I have 1 of these in use connecting 2 PCs to 1 monitor.

Hmmm...seen that before. It would do, but I don't actually need the monitor. Thanks!

Has anyone come across a USB switch box which allows the use of two separate devices on two or more computers? That must be available somewhere...

I have one of those manual 2 port KVM switches (looks like the same exact 1 as that site) that's been sitting in my closet for a while. If you want it for $10, it's yours. PM if interested.
