Monitor sharing

BritSwedeGuy · 2 Oct 2006 at 21:51

I have two PCs and two monitors (15 pin connection) but this seems a bit redundant and I would like to switch to just one monitor. The towers will be near to each other.
Recommendations?

a kvm switch?

Well if you want a new monitor anyway get one with more than one input connector

Pain in the bum using one monitor, as I found need to use both computers at the same time, so switching input on the monitor is a chore (had laptop connected to my Philips too) unless whilst one is on the other is off, as it auto switches.

I'll be keeping one of my two existing monitors, I just want a switch box to be able to change between them. One is an always on server, the other my 'power machine', so I don't need to see both monitors at the same time.
I've seen a box but it did mention loss of signal quality, which isn't something I want.

Are they on the same network ?, if so then why not use something like realvnc ?
