USB to PS2 adapter - aurelio - 10-26-2014 12:26 PM

....this is my last day in Moscow (nearby to)
I've not found the MK-61, there was not time to organize a meeting with the seller, but I bought a USB to PS2 adapter that in Italy is practically no possible to find, so that I'll be able to use all my old PS2 devices which are now sleeping in the drawer, like for example keyboards and trackballs Smile

Happy like a child

greetings from Russia

Massimo, you are sure a lucky man Smile

I asked a lot of time looking for them in all the shops of my town and near to (GENOVA), I asked also in a pair of shops in Milano, I asked to my colleagues, then I stopped the search, but it was last time at least already 6-7 years ago.

when and where did you purchase yours?....just to know


EDIT: just to avoid misunderstanding, I'm talking about the adapter with PS2 female and USB male and not the reverse adapter!!!

the reverse adapter was supplied with all the new USB devices in way to be used also with the oldest computers without the USB port Smile

Like this one, right?
I have some of those, and some single port, purple, they gave those with mice, if I am not wrong.
When? More or less ten years ago. Where? Online catalogs...
I needed them while assembling 1U rack servers.

Yes Massimo like that, only I've payed it 150 r (3 €)

Actually I never searched them online.............this was maybe the mistake

Ciao, Aurelio!
Or should I say, Priviet!
Did you had the chance to visit those street bazars (flea markets) ?
I'm happy for your findings, there is nothing better than be there, look for what you want, and get it right away!

True, is like italy is usually ignored by all the vendors (I always see "not shipping to italy" in the product descriptions).

In other sides of the world it usually works nice, but slow (I have never lost a package, even buying from third world)
