Joel,
I use a Belkin Enterprise KVM switch (F1DE108Cuk) with an expander unit
(F1DE008Cuk) for my 15 osx servers. These have both USB and PS-2 ports on
the back, so I've attached an Apple Pro keyboard and mouse to the USB and a
VGA TFT monitor. Lovely.
You do need to get the SCSI-USB cables (F1D9401-06 for 1.8m) of course for
the servers and a link cable (F1D9402-02 for 60cm) to connect the switch and
expander.
See <www.belkin.com> for more info.
Hope this helps.
Regards.

> Hi To All:
>
> TIA for sharing your experience on the following issue....
>
> I'm looking for a KVM....
>
> Two XServes, two or three other Macs, and an IBM RS-6000 running AIX...
> I don't expect to have to include a Windows based machine in the mix.
>
> If I have to leave the RS-6000 out of the mix, I can live with that....
>
> I see APC and Belkin, all of which require a PS-2 Mouse and Keyboard.
> Is there a KVM out there that will allow me to use an Apple USB Mouse
> and Keyboard?
> Should I care? Of just go buy a PS-2 Mouse and Keyboard?
