I've used the Omniview SE 4-port at work before - nice, but a touch
pricey. I've got a 2-port and a 4-port Linksys at home right now, not
having any trouble with either of them. I also learned the rule of "use
GOOD cables" - had terrible ghosting with some old, leftover extension
cables I was using, which vanished when I bought some of Belkin's good KVM
cables...
