Does anyone have experience using a switch to multiplex one bitmapped
console and keyboard to multiple Sun server systems?  Are the video and
keyboard interfaces on the Suns tolerant of this?  I'm talking about the
basic Hi-Res Mono monitors on the older style Sun X/280s.  I have a lab of
systems and the consoles are rarely used, but their real estate overhead
is high.  

If you have experience, positive or negative, about the above, please let
me know at jar@apple.com.  

Thanks,
