What is the brand and model of this little black box?
Even those with the electronics skills will need to crack their head, order parts, order more parts, do reasearch, program, and once you think things are going well you find out the prototype won't work because you overlooked something trivial; back to ordering more parts, cratching your head while you stare in amazment at the seemingly impossible results on the oscilliscope... Not all designs go like this, but my at-home designs tend to because I get so distractated with many other things going on. There is nothing like a crying baby every 30 minutes to screw up work like this. Thankfully, the designs all worked out fine in the end! If anyone is interested in design colaboration, I'd be interested in about 10 years time. I wonder how many funds we could get with a kickstarter project? Seems a lot of retro computer users would greatly benefit from this.
If you are refering to the Belkin Omni View SE, I have one which I sourced just for this idea, but was unable to get its PS/2-to-serial conversion to work. Has anyone else had better luck with this, and if so, could you post a video of it in action?
There is also a 4-port edition of this unit, but I didn't see the point because it doesn't do audio switching. I only wanted it for use as a stand-alone PS/2-to-serial converter.
