Switch boxes?
TDIRunner:
Good luck.

Right now I'm using two Pelican composite switches. I've noticed no signal loss or degradation with the usage of these. They also do S-Video which is nice since I will be using that for a lot of my retro systems once they're back on a CRT. No S-video on my LCD. :-\
I also have all my modern systems on an HDMI switch. Also, no loss in signal quality. However, I notice that sometimes it has problems switching. Though it could be an issue on my receiver as well. I'm looking for a component switch for some of my other systems as well.

I've been wondering about these. I need a good component selector for those "middle child" consoles. I was looking at one from Pelican which seems to be a really good one, but they're hard to find. I might just break down and buy one of these.
Thanks!
TDIRunner:
There's one more point I forgot to mention. All of the inputs are straight pass throughs. That means that you can actually hook up more than one system to an input as long as they don't use the same types of inputs.
For example:
You can hook up a PS1 with s-video, and anaolog audio
You can also hook up a PS2 with component video and digital optical audio
Both PS1 and PS2 in the same input! ;D

It arrived today. No signal loss from what I can tell, I love it ;D Eventually I did figure out the labels.
Also, I just realized it matches my genesis perfectly.
