    Hi guys, i was wondering if a boards member would be willing to part with a spare usb to ps/2 convertor? (its bascially a purple version of this http://mavdisk.mnsu.edu/grunwn/images/Buy%20Stuff/ps2%20usb%20converter.JPG for a keyboard)

    I desperatley need one for a KVM switch i just bought. I have gone into 3 computer shops in Waterford asking for one of them but they dont stock them. So basically i would have to fork out E20 -E40 just to buy a new keyboard just to get the right part :eek:

    I did get one with my keyboard when i originally bought it but i lost it :-(

    So if you have one spare would you be willing to post it to me, or if you live in Waterford and have one spare.....? (i actually have a usb to ps/2 convertor but its for a mouse)

    The mouse one will work. No difference except in colour.
