Title: A lot to like, but a major unexpected flaw
Review: This 2-way VGA switch is simple and very compact. However, the maker's claim that it will work with different operating systems did not prove true for me. It seems to work fine on a computer with Windows 7, but causes a problem on a computer which can be booted to Windows XP or Ubuntu 12-4. The problem is that the resolution will be changed to a lower value than is appropriate for the monitor, and the computer's image will not fit within the limits of the screen. I read a review for a different (though similar) VGA switch which suggested the same problem. Apparently you can't be certain that this type of switch will work if your operating system is something other than Windows 7.
Is the review positive or negative?
