You are looking for a "KVM" switch (Keyboard, Video, Mouse).  Go to an
on-line retailer such as www.cdw.com and type "kvm switch" into the search
box.  They cost from $50 up, depending on the number of ports.  You need to
pay attention to cable ends..do both PCs have PS2 style keyboards?...both

may spend your money better on an inexpensive 15" monitor, now selling for
less than $150 US.

> Any advice on using these? The monitor that will be used is a Mitac 15"
> both PCs run Win 98 SE. And, are there any switchbox devices that will
