--- Quote from: TDIRunner on May 11, 2016, 03:12:36 PM ---Fortunately, each monitor has two inputs, so I will probably end up having the laptop and desktop each send two video signals. Also, the keyboard and mouse are wireless with a single USB dongle which I can easily unplug from the desktop and move to the laptop. The only things I will have to buy are some video cable adapters (the laptop uses two DVI outputs and the desktop uses two HDMI outputs, but the monitors use a combination of DVI and VGA. With that said, while it would be easy to go with the method I have listed above, I would still prefer the KVM method if I could find one cheap enough. What I cannot understand is that single monitor VGA KVM switches cost around $20. But dual monitor HDMI switches cost around $300. I'm definitely not understanding the major price jump between the two. --- End quote --- Maybe you could buy 2 20$ switches, the second one being only for the second monitor ? Click, click and you're done! |
