The Logitech Ergo K860 Wireless Ergonomic Keyboard with USB unifying reciever
allows you to switch between 3 computers. You have to have a unifying receiver
on each computer. You can also connect a Logitech unifying enabled mouse to
switch at the same time. You can also get a monitor with multiple inputs and
switch between computers with a button on the monitor instead of having
separate monitors. I do this with two computers.
