Consolidating monitor displayus

Hello all-

We're trying to save some space in our machine room and are looking
for a good solution for sharing one monitor among several different
AlphaServer 4100's, 2100's, and other systems. Can anyone
recommend a good switch that will permit 8 or more systems to
share one graphics terminal?

Also, are these graphics terminals even needed any longer? I know
that previously we had to have one just to install the occasional
firmware patch or update. But the last time we did it I think it
worked on the ASCII console alone. Are the graphics consoles no
longer required?

Thanks.

ray
