PC & MAC sharing screen / keyboard?

[Jazbee]

I will be working from home more from next month. Want to buy a big monitor and wirless keyboard and mouse to suit both my own macbook pro and my company Dell laptop (windows 7). anyone done this recently? seems a bit of a minefield to get all the bits to talk. looking at Samsung 27" monitors and Logitec keyboards / mice. Don't want to go back to PC for my own use, mac is so much better?

As an ex Mac owner and avid PC fan, I'd suggest having a look at Belkin Flip or Omniview KVM's

I used this one with my Desktop PC and 27" iMac to share the mouse and Keyboard.

If you are going for a 27" monitor try go for a 2560 x 1440 display as a minimum I'd say, I've got a couple of 27" DGM's at home and tHey are pretty good for the money.

Bought a new 27" monitor with 2 x HDMI ports, one Thunderbolt (Displayport) to HDMI for the Mac and a separate HDMI to HDMI for the PC laptop (so I dont have to keep swapping cables), also a microsoft wireless KB/Mouse, all work flawless now
