equipment Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 I am looking to use a laptop (Windows) and a mini-pc (Linux) with one screen and keyboard. Is there a switch device as a solution to be found? Where I can simply switch it back and forth? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Philip Posted April 20, 2012 Share Posted April 20, 2012 If you're looking to use the laptop screen and keyboard, good luck - that's could get very tricky depending on your laptop's setup. Otherwise, look into KVM switches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
equipment Posted April 20, 2012 Author Share Posted April 20, 2012 I am not looking to use the screen of the laptop, it is a separate display and a separate keyboard. Which I consider a sense making set up. Anyway, thanks for the response, because I found a good switch box (that is how actually call them), it is for VGA. I am wondering do you know of a good one for USB? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
