I have used a very cheap one with 4 PCs for some time now, and it works 
well. It is so cheap though, that there is no brand name on it. I bought 
it on ebay. Although it is not a USB type, it has the PS2 connectors and 
VGA.

So I do not know if a more expensive one would be better, probably not, 
as my cheap one has lasted a long time without failing.
