I got my KVM (Keyboard/Video/Mouse) switch hooked up today so I can finally use both my old and new computers without having to turn them off and on and switch cables.

And I got the latest National Geographic "TOPO!" software running on the miniMac. For me, for some reason it was hard to both find the software and install it, but once I did get it working it really does work a lot better than the version on the old G-4 Mac, so it was worth it.

The Belkin KVM switch is pretty cool. I'm still using the old mac for surfing the web and email, and doing all my real work on the new mac. The only software I've put on the new mac is that which I could get free upgrades for.

With the two macs networked as well I can even run all my old software on the new mac, while it still resides on the old mac.

So, as far as geekiness goes, I think you must have more than one monitor and computer hooked up to your single work station if you really want to control the world.

Since I only meet one of those criteria I'm still not there yet frown
