	You're after a KVM Switch. Not an entirely simple undertaking. But
pretty straight forward. 

	There's lots of really expensive, logic switched fancy ones, or just
straight rotary knob ones. Rose make a very nice range of fancy ones
(www.rose.com) or you can try Dick Smith or Jaycar for something...

	You _should_ be able to get such a thing from most computer stores.
Just tell the sales guy what you need. You want to connect 2 PCs to one
monitor. You'll need the extra cables to connect from the KVM to the PCs.
They're not always the most reliable things in the world though! :) ...
Someone else in Humbug might even have one in a box of bits somewhere.
