Yeah: don't use a KVM (the network is the computer).

Of course that works really well when you have a Blade-2000 and a Mac
G5 that you are doing development work on. Putting two keyboards and
two LCD's on my desk really makes sense and endears me to my wife.
Further the Mac's Aqua GUI really works well across the net to the
Blade-2000 running OpenSolaris B72 and vice-versa. Now given the
additional information have you got a suggestion?

If you missed my reply yesterday, try a Sun compatible KVM. It may not
be compatible with a Mac however, in which case you'll just have to
learn to live with two keyboards, two mice, and two monitors.
