Hmmm....I'd either get two more macs, or get a PPC laptop. ADB/Mac DB-15 Monitor dongles are hard to come by, especially when you want one for three different monitor/keyboard setups.666th poster and 666th thread-creator

I would definitely acquire additional computers. I have the majority of my computers in the computer room, but my girlfriend and I also have laptops with wireless cards that we use in the living room.I also have a Quadra 650 and a 15" monitor on a small printer cart that can be unplugged and moved from room to room.
