computers from a single console (keyboard, monitor, and mouse). This cost-effective
way to access two computers, without extra hardware, is highly efficient and easy to
use. By allowing a single console to manage both computers, the MiniView™ Micro
eliminates the expense of purchasing extra keyboards, monitors, mice, and the
MiniView™ Micro eliminates the extra space they would take up.

desktop. It also comes with a built-in KVM cable set to simplify the installation.

entailed. There is no software to configure, and no imcompatibility problems. Since
the MiniView™ Micro intercepts keyboard input directly, it works on virtually any
hardware platform and with virtually all operating system.
