I fancy setting up a few Raspberry Pis with different configurations. 
Their small size would make them ideal for having many of them in a 
reasonably small space and I would need them all to be viewable on a 
single monitor (by switching).

One monitor, keyboard and mouse would probably do for them all. Anyone 
aware of a good-value KVM solution for this? An 8-way would be enough. 
Some sort of power distribution would be a bonus. Second hand would be 
OK. Cheap components would be a double bonus.

I am not thinking of compute modules as the individual Pis could me 
moved later.

Any of you guys already done this?

James
