Best KVM/monitor sharing solution

[Commander Marklar]

Hey ho...

Tired of switching the cable over, what's the best solution to this? You know, like the miracle Argos-SCART block, but for a VGA monitor

Looking at some of the switches on eBuyer, they all (read: the cheapest ones) seem to be set up for PC operation, taking supply from a USB port or via the keyboard. Well, I want to use a Dreamcast and Xbox and I don't seem to be able to find what I want exactly.

So, never mind hank's PC problems... Any help?

I got a manually controlled VGA switcher from Maplin a year back that does the trick without the need to keyboard or mouse intervention.

Comes is a sturdy metal box with a big **** off switch on the front with two inputs and one output.

Use it with my GC and Xbox no bother. (Works fine for me...)

Can't (don't want to) find any links but then I'd rather fix Hanks problem than help YOU any more.
