Oh, I actually meant that some KVM's will spontaneously disconnect the keyboard or mouse. You can have the computer running with all cables securely connected the whole time, and switch to one of the systems, and you won't be able to use the mouse. That's very frustrating when it happens. That's the issue that we have with the Belkin ones. - Justin
