You should be skeptical that those five operating systems are all that it works with. Do you seek out networking equipment that specifically lists compatability with your operating system too?

KVM != networking equipment (or at least not desktop KVMs)

Both use standards that are basically device agnostic, particularly by the time you get to the OS-level. Try to keep up.

It was just a comparson. Nobody said it's network equipment. You can also compare ot to other peripherals that have almost nothing to do with your operating system, like your monitor, speaker, etc.

I once had a keyboard with a "Works with Netware!" sticker.

Alas, I can't find any networking gear that has a "works with Linux" sticker so I'm just out of luck on that "Internet" thing all the kids are talking about.

Honestly more respectable than what I was replying to before, unless they were being sarcastic at first.

Seriously though, I dig it. Just a bit off these last few days.
