I believe a device called KVM is designed for this function. You can connect multiple PC to one set of keyboard and monitor.

The easiest way to share the monitor is to get a vga extension cable for each pc. Have the female connectors all labled and tied up together. Plug your monitor connector to the PC you want to display.
