Just saw this new Flip model from Belkin, will retail for $149 and supports dual-link DVI too. Another nice feature is the ability to leave the audio on one system regardless of the keyboard/mouse/video switch (so you can keep music playing as you switch back and forth).

Do they make KVMs that switch DVI inputs? What's the IQ like on them? Though I'm obviously looking to switch b/t two PCs, I love how my LCD monitor looks over the DVI output, and don't want to (won't!) go back to a VGA output.

just out of curiosity what lcd do you have that looks so different with dvi compared to vga? the few that i have used (sony, samsung, viewsonic 17-19") to me have all looked the same on either port. just curious and wondering if when i move up to a higher resolution lcd the connection will become a issue.

Yes they do,
For example IOGEAR makes one : Item
The reason I didn't get one,
a) cost
b) max res is 1600X1200

If your LCD has both a DVI and a VGA input, you can likely use the monitor to switch between those two. I wanted to get a DVI KVM, but they're too expensive, so I hooked up the second PC to the VGA input and use the monitor to switch, and a $35 KVM for the rest. This way I still have DVI on the gaming PC and VGA is fine for the internet/work PC.
