Best Buy Computer Keyboard And Mouse

This IOGEAR GCS110-4 4-Port KVMP switch is my first purcahse of this type of gear...should have bought one years ago. I had checked out one of the other brands, but the manufacturer's web-site had the same photo and description for two models, very confusing. I am using this switch with three computer, Win7, Win8.1 and a Linux rig. I keep the fourth port open for testing other computers, no need to connect one being tested to a separate keyboard and mouse setup. This switch allows me to easily switch between computers via keyboard shortcuts. I have a Logitech Keyboard and Mouse which share a single wireless USB dongle, plugging the dongle into the keyboard USB port of the monitor area of the switch allows me to use the keyboard and mouse on all computers. I did have to uninstall the Logitech software which allowed for custom keyboard layout (volume up/down, next track, etc.) as it seemed to conflict with the way the KVMP switch emulated Keyboard and Mouse Control...not an issue for me in this case. I am not a hard-core gamer, thus do not have a mouse with 92 buttons on it..more of a FPS and Flight Sim guy here. I like the fact that I can switch the keyboard/mouse, Vidoe and USB separately from the audio, that is I can have music playing on one computer, switch the Keyboard/Mouse, Video, and USB to another computer and still hear the music from the first computer. I have all my external drives and printers connected directly to the Win7 computer working as a server for all my data. I have a USB hub connected to the KVMP input which is accessed by whichever computer I am using for such things as my web-cam, joystick, multimedia card reader, and ID CAC Card Reader. I started taking IT classes and now I can easily do remote access, learned how to access Windows Shared Folders from the Linux box...and more, having the computers side by side with one control system is a Godsend. I would recommend this switch to anyone considering such a purchase.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Keyboard and mouse work well with my new computer, this was a good buy.

Have bought many, many of the keyboard mouse combos and will probably buy more.

This was an impulse buy one day. Best decision ever! I use this keyboard with in my classroom to control the computer I have connected to my projector. Being able to stand at my podium in front of the class and control my computer, or walk around the room and still control it has been an absolute game changer for me and my teaching.

Best buy when you have kids home using your computer. You never know...

Best keyboard and mouse I’ve used. Very silent and the buttons feel great.

Hooked it up and it works. You may have to unplug your keyboard or mouse and plug it back in to get the secound computer to reconise it.

Works will with my computer and because the mouse and keyboard use the same USB port it frees up space for other uses

Quality keyboard and mouse. Great value as a set. Otherwise too expensive to buy on their own.

I really like the keyboard and the mouse
