KVM Switch in a cab?

[Generic Eric]

For folks that have a dreamcast and PC in cab, using a KVM switch shouldn't be a problem should it?  This is of course assumes you are using a standard pc monitor for your display.

Just a thought.

I have this one.
I got mine locallly for $20 and came with no cable.
this looks like a deal allright except not too sure about these chepo cable without filter.  
Its only $13 so whatever !
I paid $20 for the box then $40 more for 2 cables with filter(local).

I actually purchased one from this dude. It came w/ no problems. I've not fully tested it yet.

I think KVM switches are usually cheap because they cause quality loss in the monitor signal, preventing the higher resolutions and refresh rates from being used.  Not a problem for arcade cabs tho.     So I wouldn't worry about the price.

DUDE,thats totally BS.  
There is no loss of signal ...EVER !
Just so everyone knows...

I had severe ghosting on my KVM switch if I ran the monitor at 100Hz 1600x1200.   And no ghosting without the switch.

I've taken too many circuits classes to believe you when you say doubling the length of cable and inserting a box with a different impedance than the cable itself smack in the middle will never ever cause any signal loss on a 360,000 Hz signal.

My point was that the difference is at resolutions and refreshes that people don't use in arcade machines so not to worry about it.
