KVM Advice needed
We are looking for a solution to a conference problem we are having. Currently, we have one PC setup, to access our corporate LAN, using a Wireless Keyboard and Mouse. This PC is located on the outside of this conference room, with the DVI cable running through the wall and into the back of a 42" HDTV being used as a monitor.
Now, the problem is, we have been asked to add a second PC to this setup that has internet access (we have two separate networks in this office for security reasons). We can find KVM switches with DVI capability, and even some that supposedly work with wireless setups, but cant seem to find any that do both. Does anyone know of a KVM switch that will do both?
Another option, if at all possible, and probably easier to implement would be to find another Keyboard/Mouse combo that has two receivers and allows for a keyboard shortcut to alternate between the two. Does anyone even make this types of combo?

My co-worker did some more research into this yesterday after I posted and he found a software solution that works really well.
For future reference, the software is called KaVoom!
Thanks for the help guys. I will spilt the points between the two of you since you did offer some options.
