NE1 used this dual keyboard cable?

I think the laptop splitters are definitely designed differently than what you would need, they probably need a suitably wired ps/2 port and take advantage of the 2 "reserved" pins in the p/s port.

How about this though?

Wouldn't this work for 2 ps/2 keyboards? I don't think I'd want to use them both simultaneously but who does on an arcade cabinet, you use either the controls or the keyboard...

Has anyone actually tested the adapter mentioned above.  Basically, does it work and do the LED indicators on both keyboards function correctly???  I am interested in one, but they want $7 shipping on top of the $7 price, which is a lot to throw away if it doesn't work.

I have only used it on a laptop....

and this will let you plug in keyboard and mouse...

but I have not plugged it into a desktop before...

This one is slightly different.  I tried the mouse/keyboard one, and it won't work on a desktop.  This one is for two keyboards.

However, all the other dual keyboard adapters I have seen need some kind of microcontroller and I don't think this has one.  I suspect the LED's may not function correctly with this one, but if someone has used it and can verify that it works fine, I would be very interested in it.
