Looks like switching isn't too expensive to me: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Duronic-Switch-input-output-Switcher/dp/B0020426AG/ref=tag_tdp_sv_edpp_i http://www.lindy.co.uk/usb-switch-4-port-usb-2-autoswitch/42784.html Yes, it is two buttons to press instead of one, but having a real USB switcher instead of a KVM solution where you can only switch a mouse and keyboard (the set up I have) sounds great to me. -- James Tunnicliffe _______________________________________________ linaro-dev mailing list linaro-dev@lists.linaro.org http://lists.linaro.org/mailman/listinfo/linaro-dev
