adapters and they could be flaky,...

keyboard connection etc...

I use a no-name cheapie keyboar+mouse adapter that looks like a "y"
cable more than anything. Works fine on USB for both. I think I paid
about $2 shipped from China.
I can get the chip ID if you'd like, but that assumes that you can find
another like it.

I've had a few and found the ones that look like a Y-cable work far
better than the ones that look like a little lump of an adapter. I use
my Indy keyboard through a KVM and one of the Y-cable adapters to a PC
and an SGI, and used to have the same setup at work.
But has anyone found a decent solution to connecting a USB mouse - such
as a wireless mouse - to a PS/2 machine? Eg my nice Logitech MX to an
Indy? I know there are some adapters for older Logitech mice, but
they're just wiring rearrangements for mice that already understand PS/2.
