Right now, the station where these three computers are at is cluttered with tree of everything. Mice, keyboards, and monitors. Is there a device that would allow us to attach all three computers to one set of a monitor, keyboard and mouse through some sort of switching box? I've seen devices that allow one computer to have multiple monitors, can we just reverse on of those?

RealVNC if they are very far from your desk. Also KVM over IP, but that is an expensive option.
