Incompatible, Unreliable
Best Uses:
Home
Describe Yourself:
High bandwidth user

Personal
Bottom Line:
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Comments about Belkin 2x1 USB Peripheral Switch:

May be ok with two computers using same operating system. Does not work all the time with my vista on one and xp on other pc. Have to disconnect and re boot a lot. Iam going to look for a simple switch as the problem with this one seems to be the hot switch function.
