Monitor 1702 FP LCD with 2 computers

Question

Above Monitor has two imputs, VGA and digital.  Can I run a Dell 4550 on the VGA and an Apple with DV output on the other?   Assumes only one on at a time but both connected.

messian362,   You should really use a KVM switch for this.  Connecting both inputs will often confuse the monitor circuitry and it will often display only a blank screen.    Steve

Give it a try.  The only time it might be a little confusing is when one of the computer's is turned off; it will turn the monitor off insted of switching to the other sorce.  Even if that happens you should still be able to press the Switch button to chance to the other sorce.
