Annabelle,
For USB you don't use a switch, you use a powered hub. That expands the number
of ports.
I don't understand your need for a serial port for the monitor. A monitor does
not use a serial RS-232 port, it uses a special 15-pin connector configuration.
For that, you can purchase a special switch, but don't buy a "serial port"
switch. Buy a video monitor switch.

Hi, it's Annabelle.
Does anybody know where I can find an A&B Switch that supports both USB and
Serial Ports? The reason why I ask is because I'm eventually going to purchase
the Rockbox I7 from PC Audio Labs, and my monitor is powered by a serial port
connection. Also, I'm going to hook up my computer keyboard, my mouse, and both
my printers to the USB ports. Does anybody have any suggestions for me?
