1.0 out of 5 stars does not work, December 23, 2005

By	midbar (Pittsburgh, PA United States) - See all my reviews

The adaptor, advertised as "the perfect solution for connecting your input device to other ports on your computer," does not work with a regular PS/2 keyboard connnector and a USB port on a Dell laptop. A customer support person from TigerDirect, which sells them, explained that the stuff they sell is not supposed to work "with those proprietary machines like Dell or Compaq, only with the machines made from scratch." Of course, such nonsense could never be included in the product description. The agent's supervisor said the agent was "incorrect," promised to speak to him and his manager (the possible content of that discussion was not disclosed), and offered a return authorization number, with reimbursement that does not cover the initial shipping. As that shipping cost more than the adaptor ($7.04 vs. $4.99), there is no way to recover the loss.

5.0 out of 5 stars ********* READ THIS ******************, January 12, 2007

By	NANDO "AMAZON JUNKY" (UNION NJ USA) - See all my reviews

This item only works with Logitech brand keyboards. From the reviews seems like the buyers have not done the proper research and Amazon description does not state that either.

So, unless you have a Logitech brand keyboard this item will not work for you.

Hope this helps those that are still looking

1.0 out of 5 stars Confirmed - No go for Dell's, March 26, 2006

By	D. Bennett (Los Angeles, CA USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Bought one of these fellers for my laptop to use one of the old IBM 'clicky' type keyboards; no trouble using the keyboard with any computer with a ps/2 connector, but the USB converter is not recoginzed with the Dell.
