At work, I need to work with 3 laptops (3 mac book pros).

My employer is happy to pay for whatever hardware or software to make it easier.

What setup should I go for?

I thought about the following options

1) my current setup I simply have the 3 laptops sitting on the desk, and 1 screen. I move one laptop to the center of the desk, unplug the hdmi cable to the screen of the other laptop, and plug it in the laptop I want to use. This is a bit unwieldy, and there's a lot of unplugging/replugging

2) 1 keyboard, 1 trackpad, 1 screen A better option might be to have 1 external keyboard, 1 external trackpad, 1 screen. Laptops would stay on the side of the desk, and I would have a little hardware box on which I click a button that says which laptop the screen/keyboard/trackpad are linked to. Does such a box even exist? Does it make sense?

There are probably good options that I am missing. I'd be grateful for any thoughts. Thanks!
