I'm a big believer in making a whole data center boot up to its desired state with no human intervention, so a server hung up by a KVM switch is something I can't abide.

&gt;&gt;&gt;Howdy all!
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;Since many of you are in Data Center environments, what KVM switches do
&gt;&gt;&gt;ya'll suggest? (preferably under $500.00 and for 16 ports).
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;We have a mix of Linux/Win NT/2K/2K3 servers if that helps any.
&gt;&gt;&gt;
&gt;&gt;&gt;Thanks,
