Rich,

I've used Linksys (two different models), Cybex, BlackBox, Raritan (2 or
3 different models.)

I recommend avoiding unpowered KVMs at all costs.  In my experience,
unpowered KVMs of all brands are less stable then the powered KVMs.

My two cents.  Hope that helps.
Erik.

  As I set up my new workstation/server I want to use the same keyboard,
monitor and mouse with it and the old box. There seem to be quite a few
brands available for these switches.

  Does anyone have experience with them and can provide thoughts on what
to get or what to avoid?

Thanks,

Rich
