Funny that, Scot. I was going to suggest the Iomega unpowered KVM, don't 
have the model here, it's at work, but it came recommended here. Mine 
works great in various flavors of Windows and with Fedora. I haven't 
thought about it in months, now, the sign of a good piece of equipment. 
I've been rebuilding a bunch of Windows boxes recently, and some of have 
been W2k, and I've had no problem with the Iomega. What kind of mouse do 
you use? Mine is a MS optical intellimouse.
