I know this might not be feasible to a lot of people but I keep my shack computer for solely ham radio activities and use other computers for email, development, etc. How is the best way to do this? Buy a KVM switch (keyboard, video, mouse) so you can switch from one computer to the other with the touch of a button or keyboard command. At Casa del Crappo I use a triple monitor setup with two of the monitors switchable between three different computers.
