Hi Jim,
I might suggest that you take a look at www.belkin.com they have a pretty
large selection of USB and other solutions for connecting all sorts of
machines and peripherals. As to making the software work together, that is
beyond my realm.

Greetings all;
I hope you will help in this challenge. The short version is this:
At this university, we have some "Smart Classrooms", that is
classrooms with podiums that contain a PC, a Macintosh, A/V
equipment, and a controller for a Data Projector (projection TV). The
current thinking is to get a 1U rackmount PC workstation, put a
Macintosh into a rackmount case, and have them share CD drives,
Floppy drives, monitor, keyboard, and mouse, perhaps using USB.
Has anyone tried this before? Are there any suggestions for switches
or USB hubs that would allow this. Any thoughts would be appreciated.

TIA
Jim
