| IOGEAR Transforms New Mac mini into Home Entertainment Center Consumers can now convert the new Mac mini into an advanced home multimedia center with IOGEAR's new 4-port MiniView USB KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) Switch (model #GCS634U). IOGEAR's new product enables consumers to share their favorite music and video files among desktops and laptops. The switch turns any home computer into an entertainment hub and connects to HD TV (High Definition Television) with VGA (Video Graphics Array) input. By linking a USB wireless keyboard and mouse to the KVM switch, users can watch home videos, play their favorite CDs, surf the Internet and control computers' desktop functions from the comfort of their couch. The compact KVM switch stacks directly under the mini, reducing home or office clutter. The KVM fully supports multiple operating systems, including Windows, Mac, Sun and Linux. It comes equipped with two built-in cables for simple Plug-n-Play use, featuring two extra ports and two additional detachable cables. The device comes with a unique USB 'Sniffing Technology' that reduces the delay typically experienced when switching computers, and allows multiple computers to be booted simultaneously. The 4-port MiniView USB KVM Switch supports Plug-n-Play monitors and most wheel mice. IOGEAR's patented Video Signal Enhancement Technology (VSE) provides rich, 32-bit color at resolutions up to 2048 x 1536. The KVM switch features a set of 'hot keys', IOGEAR's breakthrough KVM technology. When using a PC keyboard, hot keys are designed to emulate the special keys on all Mac machines. write your comments about the article :: © 2006 Computing News :: home page |
