I think you are talking about the Iomega "Mac Mini"

Original models were USB 2.0 and FireWire 400

there is all kind of weird stuff, from 8-port usb hubs to cases with speakers in them (which look like made from original apple cases) until this custom table mount rack which is only available locally.
given that this form factor is now 15 years old that is not a bad support.
-
there is a rare 1183 "server" mini on german e.k. if anyone is interested. but untested/broken.

just bought the above belkin kvm switch in "unused" condition.
i´ve read a few negative reports about it, but until now it does what it should.
have not yet tested cables longer than 3 meters. because of my usual "cable length issues" (monitors in the center, computers all around in the room) it is not ideal to use a switch with built-in connections, i would prefer to use very short cables with it when used with 2 minis.
don´t forget (i almost did) that if you use WUXGA or greater, you can only use the G4 minis with it; the VGA output of the core2duo models can´t handle such a monitor properly, it is required to connect them via DVI-D.
