RW>> What does the E in KDE stand for?  I've used a KDM between two
 RW>> computers before, but havn't heard of a KDE.

 ml> KDM or KVM between two computers?

 ml> as for the 'E' in 'KDE', originally 'KDE' was a word-play on Common
 ml> Desktop Environment... the 'K' originally was to stand for 'Kool' but
 ml> that was dropped and it became just 'K Desktop Environment'... so the
 ml> 'E' stands for 'Environment' ;)

 RW> I must have this confused. I have a Keyboard, Display and Mouse
 RW> interface that allows control of two computers with one set of KDM
 RW> devices. 

hahaha... Keyboard Video Mouse == KVM :P

and i've seen several that also switch the audio, too... that way you only
hear sounds from the one system that you are actively controlling...

for some reason, i'm thinking that there is/was another item that could be
connected but it isn't important enough for me to be bothered looking it up
;)
