There are things that act sort of opposite KVM. The folks at Maximum PC got one a couple years ago so they could test monitors as objectively as possible. If you think about it there would be quite a few legitimate purposes, like displaying the same image on multiple screens on a tradeshow floor, for example. I'll try to figure out what it's called.

you could use the ipac 4 player model and cinfigure player 1-2 for one cab and player 3-4 for the other cab, then you need a two monitor video card, or two separate video cards. Then you gotta configure it somehow to run different instances of mame and to display in teh monitor somehow. I'd ahve no idea how to do it. Might be cheaper just to get a POS computer off ebay to run cab2

Hmm... I am sort of in the market for such a thing... if anyone has one, I would trade for a 4-port belkin KVM w/ cables and some cash if needed.

Wow, I actually have a VGA Switch... now how would I do controls?

I have a computer on one side of my basement, how bad would signal loss be?

So now I just need one for controls...
