This is a little off the subject, but not completely. I read somewhere a long time ago that USB is basically ADB. Or that USB is an enhanced version of ADB... or something like that. Anyone know what I'm talking about, or heard anything like this? Or am I just making things up now?
USB is an enhanced and slightly modified version of the PS2 serial spec. That is why you can get a cheap USB keyboard with a usb to PS2 adapter for $10.
I also just found, am am itching to try out, an adapter that has a picture of a keyboard that has a USB A connector (what is on your computer) with a female PS2 connector and am wondering if this will let you use a ps2 keyboard with a Mac. I have some older ps2 keyboards that have a very nice feel.
