NEW RJ45 to USB Soarer's Converter Model M Terminal Keyboard +Remapping +Macros

Description

Up for buy it now is a NEW custom RJ45 to USB Soarer's Keyboard Converter as pictured for use with IBM Model M terminal keyboards.  It is about 1ft in length.  Each lot is for one adapter shown.  It is plug and play, but the keyboard must be plugged into the adapter before plugging the adapter into the computer initially so that the adapter correctly senses the keyboard.  These cary a 30 day return period if you are unsatisfied for ANY reason.
Soarer's converter adds the ability to remap keys, add macros, add additional function layers, and be able to toggle different layouts by pressing a single key.
Here's a simplified explanation of Soarer's Converter's main features:
Remapping - Assign any key to any other key, including ones that aren't on the keyboard, like media volume controls or the "Apple/Command/Windows" key on older keyboards like model M's.
Macros - A single key press can "play back" a series of key presses.  For example, you could set F12 to send Control-Alt-Delete or set one key to represent an entire shortcut like Alt-C for "copy" when doing copying and pasting.  If there's a certain combination move in gaming, you could set one key to perform the entire combination.
Function Layers - Changes the behavior of other keys when the function key is held down.  Think of this like adding extra "Shift" keys to add more functions to existing keys.
IfSelect - Press a key once and it permanently changes the function of any number of keys until that same key is pressed again. Think of this like "Num Lock" which completely changes what the number pad does.  This is also useful if you are using multiple different operating systems or applications that you want different layouts from time to time.  Pressing one key could change the function of "ALT" to the "Apple/Command/Windows" key.  It also will allow you to have several different layouts programmed for different applications.  You can even program in completely different keyboard layouts like Dvorak or Colemak and toggle between them with a single key press.
For more information on Soarer's Converter, please Google "Soarer's Converter" and a link to Deskthority and Geekhack will come up which further explains all features.
If you want to utilize the special features other than straight conversion to USB such as key remapping, macros, and layers, you will need to make a text configuration file and upload it to the converter which is most easily done in Windows.  Once configured, this configuration is stored within the cable and you can use it on any computer without the need for additional drivers or software. Please Google "Soarer's Converter" to find the original threads by Soarer for detailed instructions on how to make the configuration file and a more detailed explanation of all features.
I've written some basic instructions for configuring the Soarer's Converter that I believe are a little easier to understand
for non-programmers
under Windows OS.  I can send you a link to my configuration instructions with examples of how to do each step after purchase if interested.
Shipping will be FREE to the USA.  International shipping cost is determined by ebay's shipping calculator based on location and does not include any international taxes imposed by the buyer's country (if charged, these taxes are to be paid by the buyer upon receipt).  Thanks for looking and please ask any questions you may have!
