Customer reviews
Perfect 
by .. David AC (Florida, USA)
The installtion is so simply. Plug the included cables into your 2 devices. Plug your monitor into the switch.
Thats it! It works perfectly, I switch back and forth between my PC and 360. There is no loss in quality, no ghosting, etc.
Not only that but I have my USB keyboard plugged into the switch, and whenever I switch from PC to 360 (by a push of a button) it also switches the keyboard over. So I can type messages to my friends without the hassle of changing cables. Honestly worth every penny!
Great device for the price. by .. J. Pyron ()
I just needed a basic switch to go between my two boxes I have at my house. One is a XP Professional, and the other is a Fedora 11. Both are shared now to my Dell monitor, keyboard and mouse. I didn't need anything fancy, and with the way my household is having to "tighten the belt", something cheap.
I'm very happy with this, sure it has a slight delay of a couple of seconds but it gets the job done. Which is why I gave it 5 stars. Plus the fact you don't need any power source for it as it gets it's power from the system that's active at the time.
Hooking up the Kinamax by .. jungmun (Hawaii)
I hooked up an older computer that had PS2 mouse/keyboard and a newer one that uses USB mouse/keyboard. Basically, it works, but the PS2 computer doesn't recognize the USB mouse/keyboard at boot up until you confirm the keyboard is hooked up by pressing F1.
The VGA monitor is hooked up with a DVI to VGA adaptor on both computers, and then feeds into the Kinamax. Although the Kinamax supports higher resolutions, it defaults to 600x800 on the newer computer, a problem for me because I use Photoshop and Premiere that recommends higher resolutions. But if I boot the computer with monitor directly hooked to the computer, then physically unhook and plug the monitor into the Kinamax, it'll display the higher resolution. This isn't a problem with the PS2 computer. I can't figure out why this is.
In short, the Kinamax works. If I boot then hook up the monitor through the Kinamax, I can switch with ease between the two computers. The mouse/keyboard hook up doesn't have any real problems except for pressing F1 during booting on the PS2 computer.
Simple and effective. by .. P. Travis (Montana)
Great deal for the price and my application. Switch is powered by USB from selected device. no keyboard shortcut to switch, button only, but usb functions flawlessly. one pitfall: this switch does not pass on the appropriate signal for my monitor to go into standby mode. Love that it comes with cables.
Awful handling of VGA signals 
by .. Matthew Marino (Kendall Park, NJ)
I purchased this product to use one VGA monitor with two computers. The USB functions work well but it is very poor when handling VGA signals. For starters, whenever this box is used, wavy lines scroll up my screen. It feels like there is some sort of interference. When the computer went into sleep mode, the image would not come back. If I install the box after my computer is already booted up it will maintain the correct resolution. However, when I restart with the box plugged in, it reduces it to a lower resolution and wrong aspect ratio. Overall, I fully regret purchasing this box. If you are looking to use this for VGA switching you will want to look further especially if you want anything over 1280 x 1024.
