Do these things work?

Thanks for the input everyone

Almost no, everytime.
If anything, get an add-in PCI card for the computer so you can plug the hardware directly. Something like this:

I hadn't hooked up my trackball yet, but I ended up getting one of those adapters in my initial link.
I hooked up a PS/2 mouse to my windows 7 computer with it and it picked it up and started working. I haven't tried it with my xp computer (actual pc running arcade software) or my trackball mouse yet
