| 2 systems, 1 monitor: Splitter?
I need to use my monitor for 2 systems. What type of router/splitter do you recommend? Linky action would be great.. or if anyone has a reliable one they'd like to sell I may be interested.
I could probably google this, but you peeps are faster. 
*edit- I found VGA Splitter/boosters for one system and many monitors, I need the opposite.. see the attached pic for details. And my art skillz.

Yeah, the description and reviews specifically mention toggling between two systems on one monitor.. besides, video toggling wouldn't make sense if it wasn't with one monitor. Why would you toggle between two systems just to use the same keyboard? 
I thought amazon had the best price, but 7-9 day shipping is too long... www.googlegear.com wins again! $38.50 with free two day air. | |

Belkin KVM's are excellent. Use them all over the place at my work. The best thing is you can switch using the button or using a key-combo.
