    need a video switch box that connects both pc's to the monitor. can only have 1 pc on at a time on the monitor as can't do a split screen with 1/2 for laptop & other half for desktop.

    i know this is going to sound crazy but im going to explain it the best way i can, ive seen it done where there is a desktop and a laptop, the laptop is closed, on the desktop screen is the laptop screen in a window you could minimize it just like a regular window, does anyone have any idea of what im talking about?
