I've decided to go the hardware route

[fatherjason]

i wanna 3box me some mages... i have the computers, accounts, most of the hardware to do it... But, what I am missing is some type of USB splitter i can put on my keyboard. I'd prefer to stay wired just for peace of mind... and i don't really wanna buy 3 wireless keyboards so i can have the 3 wireless recievers (waste of money IMO) so my question is... Is thier any type of splitter i can hook onto the end of my USB mouse and USB keyboard (not 1 doing both obviously) that will turn the 1 wire into 3 for all the computers? If thier is something of that nature, can you provide a link to it. A walmart-radioshack-bestbuy-circuitcity link would be preferrable (i don't like to wait on mail.)

Why Hardware? I trust more in spending my money on something real, than a bunch of codes that make up a program. What if it were to go corrupt or something... I don't want the hassle or worry

And final question, (i want to stick with 1 class) is mage gonna be a good one to 3 box, or are thier troubles with it... or troubles with my setup that i should know about? Thanks!

A lot of people use the product by vetra. http://www.vetra.com/Multipl2.htm

One thing though, many people who do a full hardware solution, still use a program sometimes for extra options such as round-robin support and mouse broadcasting. So just something to think about.
