The easiest way to solve this is to use a wireless keyboard and mouse, and to just plug the dongle-receiver into the front of the pc. When you want to control the other pc, just move the dongle over, and get going!

Wonder about the durability of the USB plugs...
Actually, a fellow ought to be able to buy a "switch-pitch" mouse/keyboard combo with two transmitters for just such a situation.

Assuming you have two monitors I would use Synergy. I use it at work and it works wonderfully.
