Dear all,
For those who like me want to use AO486 for pure dos and do not want to use a modern USB keyboard but would love to use their old DIN5 keyboard instead, this interface is really a nice to have.
I bought one and received it yesterday and of course I tried it before on a PC with 86Box to be sure the interface works and it worked, I then connected it to the Mister with the AO486 w/o knowing that it will be recognized and it has been recognized and worked immediately like a charm.
I wanted to share my experience with you in case of you know this interface and wondering if it works or not prior buying it. So now you have the answer
Here is where I bought it : https://www.befr.ebay.be/itm/Adattatore ... SwoAZfc1zB
But maybe findable elsewhere, for me it was the better choice as the supplier is located in Europe

Re: DIN5 to USB inserface
This looks nice, I use a DIN to PS/2 adapter that is connected to a PS/2 to USB adapter, and this is rather clunky this solutions is much more elegant.
