What kind of KVM are you looking for?

I use Belkin.com for most of my KVM needs.






... never used Provatange.com

Connect Pro UR-14. I'm going for something a little more serious than most KVM's I've purchased in the past.

Need to be able to connect a keyboard, mouse, and monitor to any PC with USB ports on it. Need to be able to connect 4 PC's at the same time to the same switch and have a manual hardware switch to change between PC's rather than the stupid scroll lock button idea most switches utilize. This usually causes issues with different USB keyboards, namely my G15 keyboard.

You're describing Belkin KVM's, they do all that you require.

x3 on the Belkin KVMs. Every one that I've seen has a hardware function (usually a button on top of the unit) for switching. Mine does, even though it's not listed in the specs.

We used ProVantage for many years when I was at NC State with no problems. I would not hesitate to buy from them again.

ProVantage rocks - never go anywhere else for hardware

I seem to have a better workout dodging your stupidity than attempting to grasp the weight of your intelligence.
