JT,

A few years ago I tried to find a way to have a Mac and Windows machine 
share a keyboard and mouse (my monitor already had 2 inputs, so that 
was okay.  Essentially, I was told at CompUSA that nobody makes the 
kind of switch I would need.

This is probably not the same as what you are looking to do, but if 
anyone who knows of a way for a G4 to share keyboard/mouse with a 
Gateway (both are 2-3 years old), please add that to this thread of 
commentary.
