Possible? Yes. Easy and cheap? Hell no. You'd need _at least_ a programmable
IC, IC programmer, some breadboard and as many PS/2 and ADB ports as you
want to convert.

In short, you'd have to prototype your own converter. The IC is there to
convert the signal from PS/2 standard to ADB; this shouldn't be too
difficult as the only real difference is the keycodes and that Apple
keyboards send out a model ID number over the ADB bus.

All of this information should be available somewhere in the Apple Knowledge
Base or on developer.apple.com
