I would like to purchase a KVM switch so I can use my home keyboard, etc. with my work computer.  I've done a lot of research though and I can't seem to find a KVM that also passes special commands/macros from the mouse, keyboard through.  I need this functionality for gaming purposes not work.  Does anyone know of a good switch that does this and works with USB mouse and keyboard and DVI-D monitors cables?

I don't know about passing special commands through the keyboard or mouse, but the following is one of the few that supports both USB & DVI:

I use one to share keyboard, mouse, monitor, printer and 5.1 speaker system between two machines. Works flawlessly. Kinda  pricy  though.
