It worked, no complaints - D. Lim, Nov 22, 2008

I didn't experience any problems and this was much cheaper than what was selling at my local Best Buy.

Didn't work, had to return it - Avi Greengart, Nov 17, 2008

This is a simple product: it either allows you to use older peripherals with modern USB-equipped PC's or it doesn't. In my case, it didn't. I tried it with a single "Dell" (actually IBM) keyboard and three different PCs: a Gateway desktop, a Lenovo ThinkPad, and a Fujitsu P-7000 series notebook. It didn't work on any of them, even after rebooting. Oh well. (Amazon refunded my money).

Needed it for my MAC MINI 1.1. Had PS/2 keyboard and mouse that are now USB. No problem. Easy installation.

Excellent product - M. Blanchard, Oct 20, 2008

This adapter was easy to install and began working as soon as I plugged it in. Windows XP recognized the device and automatically installed the drivers. I would recommend this product for anyone looking for a simple solution.
