Title: A good Monitor switcher qualitywise ?
Post by: Jose on September 14, 2006, 07:10:31 PM

Hi. I recently tried friends data swich (serial) to hook up my A4000T an PC to a Nokia19" (446Pro). I guess a triple input one would be the best to also accept a gfx card on the Amiga. The image gets visibly ghosted! So can someone recommend a high quality one with NO signal degradation ? What is your experience with this ?

I use IOGEAR

I have 2 PC + A4000 hooked up to it. It is PS2 connections for keyboard and mouse. I use 1 monitor, 1 keyboard 1 pc mouse and the amiga mouse for the amiga plugged in the amiga. Works great for me. To switch from the monitor,keyboard and mouse for the PC I use the "scrool key" on the keyboard. The main monitor plug is connected to a switcher box so when I use the amiga, I use the switcher box. Hope this makes sence.

cheers
