So you know how the MBA is the best thing there is out there... unless you want to game? So I am keeping my PC just for gaming, and do everything else on the MBA. Problem is I want to share KVM and Audio between the two.

Without a TB dock, what's the minimum number of connections I can make? I am thinking if I can run audio through USB then all I need to plug in is power, monitor and 1 USB connector that goes to a USB switch, which in turns connect to a USB hub. However is it possible to run audio through USB to some decent speakers? I looked through the Logitech line-up and nothing like this exist. They all take 3.5mm audio.

The 2nd part of it is to try to share a keyboard between the 2. I have a silver monitor (NEC 20WMGX), along with the silver MBA. Wondering if there's a nice silver keyboard that is good with both Mac and PC? How about a USB based wireless keyboard from Apple (instead of Bluetooth)? Does such a thing ever existed?

Please help. Thanks!
