Good Dual PS2 to USB adapter?
« on: Mon, 27 April 2015, 20:39:02 »
Would like to use my recently acquired IBM M13 on my laptop and am confused by the sheer amount of adapters available.

Is there a generally well received dual PS2 to USB adapter out there?

(Not really considering the Soarer or the Blue Cube because they only have 1 PS2 connection).

I have had had excellent success 90%+ of the time with cheap crap like this:

but a lot of people think that you need quality stuff.

Also, Chinese junk takes 3 weeks.

I have had really good luck with the Belkin dual PS/2 to USB adapter.
(I don't know if they make/sell them anymore)

The Cables-2-Go 32185 adapter works too.

The Trendnet TU-PS2 USB to PS/2 Converter works as well.

All 3 do work with both.

Edit: Yes M13.
