    One Monitor on Two PC's

    Hello, I want to know if it is possible to use a single monitor to 2 pc through a device that would act as a switch between the PC and the monitor. Thank you.

    Yes, this is called a KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse)
    Note that the switch is rarely automatic and DVI models are expensive.
    Otherwise, some screens (including Dell) have two inputs (VGA and DVI) and a button to switch from one to another.
