All I can say is that I bought an ATEN KVM box some months ago to help |
| 17 |
in installing Gentoo on my new box. It's V is two DVI connections, and |
| 18 |
it also connects up audio. |

It has performed flawlessly. The only slight problem has been the |
| 21 |
sluggishness in switching between machines - it takes well over a |
| 22 |
second. |

I have no experience with Belkin's KVMs. |
