I've been using an IOgear 4-point MiniView USB KVM switch with three 
Windows machines and one Mac, and it works great. The only problem is 
that sometimes you have to toggle its power of and back on when you 
first boot up a Windows machine (something to do with XP and USB). 
But it doesn't have a DVI connection, only VGA. The ones with digital 
monitor connections are prohibitively expensive.

(I have one monitor permanently connected to my Mac's DVI port and 
the other one connected to the KVM switch.)
