A KVM switch system is disclosed where the KVM switch is connected to data terminals of the computers to receive various data from the computers, such as system information of the computers, multimedia data retrieved from the computers, information downloaded from the Internet such as stock quotes, etc. Each computer executes a data generation program to generate the data. The KVM switch generates images based on the received data. The images may show data from all computers simultaneously. In one embodiment, the KVM switch has a touch screen panel to display the images. In another embodiment, the KVM switch generates the images and combines them with desktop images from a computer, and the combined image is displayed on the console monitor connected to the KVM switch. The KVM switch may emulate a CD-ROM for each computer and uses an auto-run file to load the data generation programs to the computer.
