   I'd like to know if there's some cable I can use so that I can connect
the plug of an IBM PS/2 keyboard to the plug-in of an Everex STEP keyboard
port, which has a 5-pin DIN-type input.  If such a cable does exist, does
anybody know if I might encounter any incompatibilities with the output
of the keyboard to my computer (i.e. are IBM PS/2 keyboards any different
from other generic/compatible keyboards?)???
