I bought this to enable my Compaq desktop and Samsung NC10 Netbook to share a single monitor, keyboard and mouse. Out of the box it was easy to set up and it worked with no bother. It's well made, looks nice and comes with all the cables you need to get up and running. The remote is great, just a click and you quickly swap between systems (with about 3 seconds delay) this is a great improvement over having to remember keystokes to change between source, there is even a little light on the remote that changes colour to show which source you have control over, it's pretty obvious really but it's a nice touch. I have no hesitation in recomeding this device.

Here's a copy of an email I sent to belkin
Hi,
I purchased a USB Switch2 KVM and would just like to say I'm happy, very happy, in fact delighted ! The flipping thing works just as it should.
Obviously I'm disappointed I didn't have to download any drivers, or ring technical support, or print out a 400 page manual from a PDF document. I mean. What gives ? Are you trying to start a new trend with working hardware straight out the box. !! Hell even the bubble wrap packaging has an easy open thingy, whatever happened to spending 4 hours finding the super strong scissors and lacerating my hand opening it and then visiting the casualty department of the local hospital ?
One other point, I think you've missed a marketing trick. I use a wireless keyboard and mouse and so only used one of the two ports. So just for fun I plugged my Printer/scanner in the other, it works, perfectly, but no mention is made of this in the real paper manual.
Yours, Still in shock

There was some confusion on which operating system it runs on.. But i can confirm it works on xp vista or windows7. Yes there is a delay after switching monitors especially a usb mouse, could be about 5 seconds. And i couldnt get it to switch with hot keys ie (scroll lock - up).
But i like it! Convenient little tool.
2 pcs one mouse keyboard monitor.
