Whilst I am not about to search eBay for KVM switches, I have considered turning one of my PC's into a server and running the other, and any subsequent PC's on the same network. This does not have to entail purchasing a network operating system as XP pro can handle a network without too many problems. The advantage is that I could use the server for routine tasks and backups , leaving other PC's to handle dedicated tasks. This may sound over the top for a home system, but more and more home systems are run from homeservers combining media handling tasks with other home-based or gaming tasks.
Dedicated homeservers are now commonly advertised and the likelihood is that this will become the norm.
