KVM Switch
The Simple Desk Upgrade That Instantly Boosted My Productivity (No New Monitors Required)
Working from home sounded great — until I found myself juggling two computers, unplugging cables, and constantly switching screens just to get basic tasks done.
Between a work laptop and a personal PC, my desk felt more like a tech obstacle course than a workspace.
That’s when I discovered a surprisingly simple solution: using one dual-monitor setup to control both computers with a single keyboard and mouse.
Instead of reconnecting cords or running multiple setups, I now switch between machines in seconds — while keeping both monitors active. No lag, no hassle, no clutter.
Why it made such a big difference:
One keyboard & mouse for two computers
Dual HDMI monitors stay connected
Seamless switching while working or gaming
Cleaner desk setup instantly
What surprised me most was how affordable and plug-and-play it was. I always thought this kind of setup required expensive office hardware — turns out it doesn’t.
If you work remotely, edit content, trade stocks, code, or just hate cable chaos, this small upgrade can completely change how your desk feels.
I wish I had done it sooner.
