Title: DEVICE with all types of connections???
Post by: alphasqorner on July 23, 2005, 02:15:20 pm

My cp has 2 usb cords and 1 ps/2 cord, but I only want just one wire coming out of it.  Is there such a device that will help me do this?

Only way I can think of is to have a 4 port USB hub inside your CP, then use a PS/2 to USB converter to make everything USB.  Then you would just have one USB cable out of the CP.

Ive thought of the ps/2 to usb adapter, but I thought there was a device that took in all kinds of connections: usb, ps/2, serial, firewire, whatever and there would only be one connection to the computer.
