d3bruts1d Posted February 15, 2003 Posted February 15, 2003 You can get a ps/2 - serial converter... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
VolcomPimp Posted February 15, 2003 Posted February 15, 2003 thats true, forgot about those converters... I used to use one of those on my brothers old Cyrix 166 (OC'd I think... I think it was 120mhz b4 that) back in the day... but if he's too broke to afford a $7 dimm which I've probly got layin around my house somewhere then he probly cant afford the converter...
