Had the two device version and it crapped out in a little over in a year

How do you kill a KVM #1? They generally last forever unless the PSU dies or you have a power surge that damages it which could happen to any KVM.

It's getting a bit long in the tooth to see analog video on KVMs though, who sets up a multi-computer environment with low resolution (else the extra cabling will cause ghosting), low refresh rate analog years after DVI and HDMI capable monitors and video cards have been sold?
