All that said, I post this from a Pi4 8GB, it is sometimes really slow,
but I like and use the GPIO port.

I'm interested in putting the internet on a separate computer and switching the monitor, keyboard and mouse with a switch box.
How well would it work for something like that? How well does it handle the internet?
I have an 'Eminent' 5 channel HDMI switch to switch between
this Pi4 8 GB (connected to the internet now)
the Pi4 4 GB (that is among other things recording security cams and playing music),
the Chinese security box (4 cams on it),
and the older raspi that runs as server for some stuff I wrote, collects data
on weather and temperature, humidity, radiation.
2 wireless keyboards on the table, one for the Pi4 8 GB (I use now to post this)
and one for the PI4 4 GB.
Via the second one I can access the server Pi via ssh.
I have a wireless small keyboard the size of a TV remote that is also listened
to by the Pi4 4 Gb, so I can set audio volume for example
or change music all remotely (listened to by a script I wrote),
but I can get full terminal access too, but that is dangerous when you cannot see what happens
when away from the monitor.
That script has limited choices... is basically a bash script running in a terminal.
There is more to it..
No problems at all so far...
