I have a monitor with only vga in. I have two vga sources, but need to switch between them without replugging the cables every time. So I looked into VGA switch boxes. I have heard, though, that there can be quality degradation, and some weird problems with some. Has anyone had any experience with these switch boxes?

I use a KVM switch in my office because Im always connecting another PC for troubleshooting or repair. Ive never noticed any degradation at resolutions of 1024x768@85hz on the el cheapo kvm i got from newegg.

This one is cheap and has the manual push buttons I need, since one of the sources is not a PC, a 360 rather. It also has a good number of reviews which I find to be helpful since Newegg is a great site I've used for the past year.
