Never had a need for such an adaptor, so I dont have any laying around. I do have an old RS 232 serial to parallel converters I got for 100 bucks at rip-off-shack in the 90's tho... Ooo, and an RS 232 NULL modem and gender changer... Wow, has it been THAT long since I bought an IO converter??? (Now where is my 2400 Baud modem at?)

I-Wiz?

Nah, sounds too much like toilet humor.

No, no, sorry, I guess I really should learn to be more clear when I say that. It's the little adapters that come free with a ps/2 USB compatible device.

Just go with a minipac for the first time out. With all things considered, it is the best geared toward us Newb's. It comes with a wire harness so you can just clip the wires right on to the buttons/etc. you dont need to crimp/strip/cut anything. It about as plug and play as you are going to get for an arcade based keyboard controller.

Hmm, you mean the adaptor thingy I have thrown away a few times because I didnt think I would ever need it? Hmm, nope, the seagulls own those now... Guess I should hold on to all of the hardware I get when I buy something... Or just go out and get a patch cable if it becomes needed.
