    Theres no way of sharing the dongle while catalyst is running... you would have to start catalyst on the mac-mini AFTER switching the dongle.

    One dongle = One software licence!

    There are a number of KVM and USB switched that support USB devices, including a dongle. However its not a good idea because catalyst will revert to 'demo' mode if the dongle is removed - which could happen in a KVM scenario...

    If you want a LIVE backup - you need a 2nd software licence dongle...

    Out of interest - how many users loose macs during their shows...
    Am I just lucky?

    Ours have been solid.... stay on top of software etc ... keep em on filtered battery backup... they seem to do quite well
