PCjr PS/2 Adapters
PCjr PS/2 Adapters
Hello, I was wondering if there was anyone that was producing the standalone PCjr PS/2 keyboard adapters. I know that TexElec makes an adapter, which is nice, but I don't like that it forces you to convert your joystick ports to game ports. I'm interested in just having a standalone keyboard adapter dongle. Is anyone producing and selling these?

Re: PCjr PS/2 Adapters
Sorry I suppose that wasn't overly clear. I am looking to buy an adapter that allows you to use a standard PS/2 keyboard with a PCjr. I saw that you had made an adapter using the design by Michael K. Graham (jmetal88) here (original posted here). I know that TexElec does sell a version of this here, which is a nice board, but I'm hoping just for a standalone keyboard adapter like the original adapter from jmetal88, not one that also adapts the joystick ports. I have a PCjr keyboard that works fine along with an official cable, but I am wanting to hook up my PCjr with my KVM switch, which uses PS/2.

Re: PCjr PS/2 Adapters
I hate to resurrect a thread like this but is there any possibility to get one of these adapters made for myself?
I like Texelec and have a few of their boards but I want to be able to use my original PCjr Joysticks and my Model M at the same time.
