Tough one.
AFAIK, you'll need a DVI switch and an expensive ($99) ADC->DVI converter. Plug the 17" display into the converter, plug one DVI port on the switch into the Mac, and the other into the PC - assuming the PC has DVI.
Might be cheaper to buy another monitor.

Is a DVI switch the same as a KVM switch? just curious. Sounds like what I would do.
