If you had a really old keyboard and mouse that you really liked, I suppose, this would be a way to keep using
them with newer machines. Or if you were connecting a PS/2 system but wanted to reduce the number of cables, since
one USB cable can carry both the keyboard and mouse signal. But still, you'd have to really like that
PS/2 mouse and keyboard.
On the other hand, it has three USB ports for connecting other devices, like
hard drives, cameras, or... a keyboard and mouse. Technically, you could use this as a
USB sharing hub, or even as a straight-up USB KVM switch that just happens to have
PS2 ports on the front. So, there's that.
Honestly, we're not really sure what the deal is with these things. We've never sold one.
They're special-order only, which means we'll requisition and ship one after an order has been placed.
Would you like to order one? Great! Just use the links above and we'll get one on its way to you. And please
leave a comment on your order telling us why you're buying one. We'd love to know!
