    Pnut, I've probly got some of the adapter boards, if we find that's what they need. If that's what they are I likely have some mixed in with old Networking boards. You'll still need a machine with at least one ISA slot

    Thanks for the info Bear. I didn't think about using an ISA card for the keyboard input. I'd love to be able to convert these to PS2 because they will be worth more if people can just plug them in. I may have an ISA board around here that has that connector on it that I can use for testing.

    Brandon, thanks, let me know. I remember having one video connector that had three inputs, one being this style, but of course I can't find it right now.

    I'd expect that the people who'll want to plug those in already have their connection, Pnut. The only reason you would need one is to test them with, although as has already been stated, they won't hardly go bad unless they've been submerged for a time, or run over by a truck. IF it is an adapter card, and you find what you need, I most likely have one somewhere, if I only knew what to look for. Fact is, I only have a couple of those keyboards, and have never had much any wish to test or dispose of them. The adapter cards I'll likely have as well, somewhere ; )

    Actually I only reached the point of wondering after reading this post, that some of the older Networking cards I've saved, might well be keyboard adapters instead
