Yeah, but I've had a gfew too many cases of having to go fishing
between the desk and the wall because the keyboard cable came out of
the adapter (with a PS/2 keyboard going to an AT socket) or the adapter
coming out of the computer (AT cable, PS/2 connector)

Some of it isn't that grreat, especially since there's so little
