Rating: Summary: flaky. doesn't work as advertised. Review: When I bought this, they claimed mac support. Now they've removed that from their spec. Firstly, there's a three to five second delay on each switch over before the mouse and keyboard become active. Secondly, after a switch, the keyboard often acts as if the ALT or CONTROL key are stuck down (they aren't) and one has to hit all the control, shift and alt keys to clear that state. Sometimes, the keyboard doesn't work at all after a switch over. Lastly, the mouse pointer loses it's speed and acceleration settings after a switch over (on both the PC and the mac) and sometimes on the PC it loses the wheel mouse control as well. And sometimes the mouse pointer doesn't move at all after a switch. These are obviously unacceptable behaviors for a KVM. They also use the windows key as the mac command key for emulation, a poor choice. No mac support for USB keyboards. Customer service was clueless and unhelpful.
