Great product, but is there any instance where a traditional crash cart would be better than this?

I've used this console to install quite a bit of equipment. It's great, because I never know if there will be a crash cart where I'm going. I would say that the only advantage to a crash cart would be that you could leave it attached and unattended without leaving your laptop behind. So, say if you needed a local facilities person to click "finish" for you or something like that, you could leave a crash cart attached. I've never run into a situation where I wish I had a crash cart instead of this console though. I suppose the other advantage to a crash cart is that it comes with it's own table. I've had to sit on the floor a few times with my laptop in a cage where the customer didn't have any furniture.

Does it have a copy paste feature so I can copy text out of the kvm onto my windows laptop?

The display is a graphical representation so there is no text recognition. You could theoretically take a screen shot and send to OCR but I'm sure that's more than you'd like to deal with.

I see this does not work with the current mac os, will it work with parallels or vmware?

The NOTECONS02 supports up to Mac OS 10.13.x. The limitation with later Mac OS versions is for our older NOTECONS01 model. Nick, StarTech.com Support.

Is this a kvm over usb (like a kvm over ip) where i would be able to view and control a functioning laptop from a desktop

The host OS (windows) on system you plug this into (laptop/desktop) is Keyboard Video Mouse to any other system you connect this to. The KVM shows up in an application.

Rien à redire

Testé avec un PC,le boitier donne entière satisfaction et remplit parfaitement son rôle, en tous les cas sur support PC. Les logiciels nécessaires sont fournis dans la boîte. La boîte justement. Peut-être ma seule réserve mais ce pauvre emballage carton fait un peu "cheap", même si la bête est en réalité un vrai monstre.
