On Monday I asked if DisplayPort or HDMI KVMs were any good.

Wesley Moore:

My partner got a StarTech one to switch between work and personal macs with a 4K Dell display… it did not go well. Display switching frequently needed multiple attempts and she ended up going back to two displays on her desk.

Rebecca Hales, via email:

They are ok if you always remember to wake your computers from sleep before using the KVM to switch them, and kick it regularly.

And Dmitry A:

No! No! No! Don’t!

Thanks everyone 👍. I’ll rethink this desk setup instead.
