OT: Looking for a specific KVM

[Jason Shein]

Look into the Zonet's line of products.

http://www.zonetusa.com/

You can get these locally and they work well.

http://www.zonetusa.com/kvm3008z.htm 8 port
http://www.zonetusa.com/kvm3016z.htm 16 port

just be aware when you buy your cables that the video port on these switches
are female, so you will need to buy a male to female adaptor for the normal
style of cables.
