I use 4-port Belkin OmniView KVM switches at home and work, and I do not
like them, Sam I Am.  When switching from Windows to Linux, the mouse gets
"jumpy."  You can fix this by either unplugging-replugging the mouse or
hitting Ctl-Alt-F1 and then Ctl-Alt-F7, but it's very annoying to have to do
this every time you switch to a Linux machine.  One of my colleagues
recently got a Linksys 4-port KVM switch, and it works much better.
