 Nice product, but beware with Mac Pro desktop August 14, 2008
I bought this to use with a Mac Pro (desktop) and a laptop. The product is designed nicely, but appears to havean incompatibility with the Mac Pro - whenever I'd switch away from the Mac it would crash, and the error report upon booting suggested the crash was happening in an Nvidia driver. Apparently when you switch away the computer loses EDID information from the monitor, then crashes. I tried the competing Belkin model (F1DG102D) and, while about $30 more expensive, it works well (though it does use a power adapter, while the Iogear does not). One other quirk with the Iogear is that when booting the DVD drive would pop open. I'm using a Logitech wireless keyboard mouse combo, perhaps the problem is related, but I don't see this with the Belkin.
Almost perfect KVM August 8, 2008
I love having USB keyboard and mouse inputs, DVI on all the ends, soft switch and puck switch capability, but if having a multifunctional keyboard hot key use is a deal breaker, look for another KVM as this does not allow for passthrough of hotkeys.

 Works great! July 21, 2008
After struggling with a Belkin Flip DVI KVM, I bought this one and have had no problems. I'm running at 1920 x 1200 and the screen and keyboard are solid. Be sure to have the computer selected when it boots so it can communicate with the monitor. After that, it works great!
it works June 19, 2008
In short, it works as intended. The cables are heavy and hard to control, and the length is a little odd if your using an iMac and standard desktop. All in all, a good buy.
