At the last Student Robotics doing, Jeremy showed me an exceptionally vile piece of hardware. Here, I share with you the pictures that I took to raise general awareness of this sort of abuse.

But does it work?
Ouch. *cringes*
I had one of those that did a 3-way PS/2 switch once, that didn’t work either (you could get the 8052 in the motherboard into an infinite loop waiting for a response to a command that would never come because the now-connected device hadn’t received it and the timeouts weren’t implemented correctly). Suck.
Incidentally, congrats on the One Show ;-)
