I want to thank everyone for responding to my question on a VGA switch.

I have ordered a 2-Port VGA Monitor Switch Box from Monoprice that looks
like it will do nicely.  Price = $9.20 each.

http://www.monoprice.com/Product?c_id=101&cp_id=10106&cs_id=1010601&p_id=54
&seq=1&format=2

Here are the specs:

Switches one VGA monitor between 2 computers.
	Standard HD15 15-pin female connectors for VGA video/monitor. (all
connector are female ports)
	Fully shielded metal case.
	Anti-skid rubber feet.
	No power required.
	6"w x 2 1/2"h x 4”d

They also have a double shielded VGA cable with ferrite cores at each end.
