At my old job there in Omahaw, we picked up the 8 port Belkin KVM that had
PS2 & USB for all the systems, but only PS2 for the master KB & mouse. The
Sun Solaris systems I put on there worked fine. Though I was not given the
chance to connect our NT and Linux/BSD systems before I left there; from
my testing everything seemed to work fine.

As usual, YMMV. =)
