monitor switch box
Hi, I have two computers. One has a CRT monitor and the other has a LCD monitor. I would like to just use the lcd monitor with some kind of switch to "switch" between both computers. Thanks

It may be possible to connect both computers directly to the LCD, if it has two inputs and your computers have the matching outputs. Otherwise you need something like this Video switch, or if you want to use a single keyboard and mouse, then a KVM switch.

If you use a router, consider Remote Desktop. You drive one computer with the other.
