4 out of 5 stars Great.......2007-10-19

I have been using the IO Gear for close to a year now. Great Product. Highaly recommend it.

4 out of 5 stars Stable KVM.......2007-03-14

I use this model at home, and we also use a large number of these KVM's at work (large defense contract company). At work we use both the 2 port and 4 port models. We were aware of the issues ahead of time that can be caused by wireless keyboard/mouse, so we were prepared. Using serveral different models of wired USB keyboard/mice, including Microsoft, Dell, IBM/Lenovo, HP/Compaq, we have not had any major issues. We have not seen any issues using the IoGear KVM's with either CRT or flat screen monitors. Most at work have been in service without any major issues for a couple of years - - and heavy switching use daily. Only issue I've noticed on rare occasion, is that once in a while when using the hotkey and F4 to switch to another computer, it sometimes will not actually make the switch after hitting enter. Again, this is pretty infrequent.

Front of the unit has LED's that give a visual status on the switch: One set of LED's show if the computer on that port is connected/running, and one set shows which port you're currently connected to.

You can use the buttons on the front of the device to manually select the computer, or you can use a hotkey (which can be modified to your preference) which will show an on-screen menu. You can also name your connections in the settings of the on-screen menu, so you'll know which computer connection is which. With the on-screen menu, you can see what computer the KVM is connected to, as well as which computer the spare USB port is connected to. Via the onscreen menu, you can change either the KVM connection, the USB connection, or both. The onscreen menu is a little "bulky" and large, and if this was a little more less shocking each time you open it up, being a little smaller I would have added the 5th star.

Being able to switch the spare USB port comes in handy, and a nice feature.... I have two computers running on two different networks at work, and because of required firewalls, there is no chance of connectivity between the two computers. With a USB flash drive in the spare USB port, I can take files from one computer, stage them on the USB flash drive, use the hotkey/menu to switch both the keyboard/mouse AND the USB port using the KVM over to the other computer, then use the staged file on the second computer.

3 out of 5 stars Not the best for power users.......2004-05-28

On the very positive side, the switch was really simple to set up. However, it doesn't work correctly with Win XP Tablet edition (mouse will go crazy and, if you have a monitor on the tablet that can switch from portrait to lanscape, it will always startup sideways regardless of your settings). Also, doesn't support the Apple key on a Mac -- but does work fine with Mac otherwise. Can be annoying for power keyboard users because the hot keys for switching are automatically on and anytime you press Ctrl twice it prompts you to switch (but, other than that, it's really great on Win XP Professional or Win 2000 machines). I'm still using the switch, though, for lack of better options ... it's better than being without one. And better than the competitors I've seen.

1 out of 5 stars Doesn't Work at All.......2003-10-01

I bought one of these recently but was sadly disappointed. It is possible it is defective and I'll try returning it for a replacement. Here is what didn't work:

Booting a system gave the old "no keyboard found press F1" oxymoronic error message. Plugging the keyboard directly into the USB port of the computer didn't not have this problem.

The manual says to press 1+2 to "reset" the unit which I tried, but it seemed to go into auto-seek instead.

The manual and website were no help, of course.

If it turns out to be defective when I return it, I'll update the review (upward I hope!).

5 out of 5 stars Stable Switch.......2003-09-04

I don't use wireless mouse nor keyboard at home, so no complain there. It works perfectly fine with the USB keyboard and USB mouse. I have the switch connected to my laptop and my desktop machine and I switch between the two machines using Ctrl + Ctrl hot key. It's really nice being able to see where I was and where I'm going. And it shows which machine the shared USB is connected to.

As another person indicated in the reivew of this product, it doesn't have a feature to turn off the beep when switching the machines. It gets kinda annoying at times, but it really isn't a big deal.

I have experienced no mouse skipping after switching, which I used to come across a lot with PS2 type of switches before. It's a really good switch if you have two machines you would like to use and all your peripherals are USB.

        Garmin GPS 17HVS - GPS receiver module

        Product Description

        The Garmin GPS 17HVS is designed primarily for use in marine applications. It delivers exceptional accuracy while standing up to the harshest environment (meets IEC 60529 IPX7 standards). The 12-channel receiver allows for continuous tracking of all visible satellites - and it's WAAS capable, which means it can provide position accuracy of less than three meters (on average). This incredible accuracy is possible without the use of an external DGPS beacon receiver. The GPS 17HVS also offers excellent EMI/RFI performance for easy integration into systems that will be operated near mobile computing devices and wireless communications equipment. The 30-foot cable is terminated in loose wires.This pole-mounted GPS receiver produces asynchronous serial data at true RS-232 levels in the industry-standard NMEA 0183 data format. This makes it ideal for interfacing to devices (such as laptops and chartplotters) that expect to hear NMEA 0183 data from a serial com port. The GPS 17HVS also is capable of producing a TTL-level Pulse-Per-Second (PPS) signal whose rising edge is aligned to the UTC second boundary within 1 uS for all conditions in which the GPS receiver has produced a valid and accurate position for at least the previous four-second interval.
