The description says:
Use to switch between TWO COMPUTERS and ONE VGA MONITOR.
Ace wants to do just the opposite: Run TWO VGA MONITORS from ONE COMPUTER.
I guess you wouldn't need to amplify if you weren't going to use the video signal simultaneously, huh? Is it safe to assume you could use this $11 box with some gender switching adapters?
With the other device I mentioned, the other post was right about potential monitor damage. I assumed you would NOT be running both monitors at the same time, with only the appropriate monitor powered up. The same warning applies with this $11 alternative, too.
