Hi, i have a Powermac 7500 with a G4 upgrade and 248 MB Ram . I want to build my own linux box but i want to use my Macs monitor, and ABD kbd and mouse. Is there a switch which does this? Has anybody already shared a Mac kbd, mouse and monitor with a PC.. Lemme know. I dont think using VNC is a good option since my Mac crawls as it is now.
thanks

Yeah, there are plenty of KVM switches out there, though I think most that work with PCs are PS/2 and serial-based rather than ADB-based, so you might have to buy a new kb and mouse.
