AT to PS/2
« on: Wed, 20 April 2011, 01:51:03 »
Recommend any specific AT to PS/2 adapters? It would be for a Model M (if that makes any difference, and I don't know any more information on the keyboard at the present moment--a friend of mine has it!).

By the way, I am fairly excited to switch to a mechanical keyboard. This standard dell keyboard is getting mushy!

A cheap one. It literally doesn't matter. http://www.cablewholesale.com/specs/ps2-to-din6/10i5-013hf.htm is some I found.

Make sure it's an AT one and not a terminal one. The terminal ones are still usable, but need to be converted to PC usage, a process described elsewhere.

Here is something heartening that I forgot to mention! It originally shipped with a 1993 PC, so it's PC-friendly.

By the way, thanks for the replies. Glad I don't need some uber-special l33t haxors! at least, until further notice.
