Is there anything that I can buy to switch between VGA signals?

I want to connect my 360 to my monitor so that it's close to my PC and so I can network them together, and my question is, is there something like a VGA box (I know HDMI ones exist) that I can use to switch between the VGA signal from my PC and from my 360? I don't want to have to screw and unscrew the plug every time I want to switch. Thanks in advance.
 
Couldn't you simply get a KVM switch and hook the video input from the pc and the input from the xbox up and just switch with a simple keystroke between which is put up on the display?

Not sure what connections you are using for the xbox, but it works with two computers hooked up to one monitor, so it should work as long as your using a vga connection.

I lucked out. My monitor has composite connections as well as dvi, and vga. So all i have to do is hit a touch button on the monitor and it will swap between inputs. But i returned my 360 so i dont need to worry about that anymore. :(
 
Do either of you know where I can find one that has two USB ports instead of the two Keyboard/Mouse ports? Neither my PC nor my 360 supports them, and I don't want to have to buy 5 converting cables (since a mouse doesn't work on a 360). Unless you guys know where to find a direct keyboard/mouse to USB adapter (no cables).
