It still is worth trying, but with more skill applied, and almost certainly more money spent. :p Surely you're not the only one with similar configuration. I am able to avoid KVM issues with big physical desktop, 6 displays, 3 full-time keyboards, 2 trackballs, one mouse, and a *lot* of cable switching, for 40+ PCs, normally with at most 3 up at once, occasionally a 4th, along with cable switching multiple times most days. -- Evolution as taught in public schools is, like religion, based on faith, not based on science.
