IRVINE, Calif., March 6 / -- Consumers can now convert the new Mac mini into an advanced home multimedia center with IOGEAR's new low-cost, 4-port MiniView USB KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) Switch (model# GCS634U).

IOGEAR's new product enables consumers to share their favorite music and video files among desktops and laptops. The switch turns any home computer into an entertainment hub and connects to HD TV (High Definition Television) with VGA (Video Graphics Array) input. By linking a USB wireless keyboard and mouse to the KVM switch, users can watch home videos, play their favorite CDs, surf the Internet and control computers' desktop functions from the comfort of their couch.

"With the launch of the 4-port MiniView KVM Switch, IOGEAR continues to turn existing computer systems into home entertainment centers," said Miranda Su, vice president of sales and marketing at IOGEAR, Inc. "As KVM switches emerge from the enterprise to the mainstream market, our goal is to enhance the digital living room with these affordable, cutting-edge devices. IOGEAR continues to introduce innovative new products that are compatible with today's most established brands, including Apple."

The compact KVM switch stacks directly under the mini, reducing home or office clutter. The KVM fully supports multiple operating systems, including Windows, Mac, Sun and Linux. It comes equipped with two built-in cables for simple Plug-n-Play use, featuring two extra ports and two additional detachable cables. The device comes with a unique USB 'Sniffing Technology' that reduces the delay typically experienced when switching computers, and allows multiple computers to be booted simultaneously. The 4-port MiniView USB KVM Switch supports Plug-n-Play monitors and most wheel mice. IOGEAR's patented Video Signal Enhancement Technology (VSE) provides rich, 32-bit color at resolutions up to 2048 x 1536.

The KVM switch features a set of 'hot keys,' IOGEAR's breakthrough KVM technology. When using a PC keyboard, hot keys are designed to emulate the special keys on all Mac machines.
