does anyone know of a thing i can use to switch around where a usb port routes to? like, for using a single keyboard and mouse with two different physical computers

@typhlosion I use what's called a "KM switch" or a "Peripheral sharing switch", like a KVM but no video. It's just a USB hub with a button and two USB cables on it, button switches where the input is going. The one I use is the IOGear GUS402 and it works well.
