Here in Michigan they seem a bit pricey, as well.  A single PS/2 to USB
adapter is a few dollars but the dual PS/2 to USB "Y" adapter is $16.00
(or worse).  I had hoped to use one with my PS/2 only KVM but the combo
doesn't work.  I suspect the issue is with the KVM as I have 2
different "Y" adapters and neither works.  Sigh :-<
