[BBLISA] KVM for Sun Ultra 5

[Lisa Koch]

I think you will also need a PS2 to Sun converter.  Sun and Mac 
keyboards have the mouse port on the keyboard, and other differences -- 
you can't just plug in a PC keyboard.  Even the newer Suns that use USB 
keyboards seem to need converters.

The Belkin PS2/Sun converters we have here can handle keyboard, mouse, 
and video, but you can ignore the video.  Insert the converter between 
the KVM switch and the Sun.  I recall that the converters cost about 
$100 each.
