Greetings, First post... I have to contribute to this site because you guys have helped me so much. Thank you!
I use Microsoft Wireless USB keyboards on the same frequency as a cheap, reliable, broadcast method. Each slave has it's own wired keyboard and when I want to do broadcast for raids and stuff (I don't always multibox) then I unplugged the USB wireless receivers (a computer can have multiple keyboards plugged in).
Well I was lazy and thought of creating a power switch to turn them on and off rather then having to track down the cords and unplug them all the time till I found this for $10.

It's awsome because of the convienence. I like the status lights when things are turned on so I can see when it's on or off so I don't broadcast to everyone. Returning tells is much easier now because I don't accidently respond on multiple characters and I don't have to find the cables to unplug.
I just used a piece of 2 sided 3m heavy duty stick tape and have them attached in a location that looks nice on my desk and the wiring hiden behind the trim piece.
