Hey!

Desperately searching for an Apple ADB cable + USB adapter.

Would really appreciate if someone in Europe still has one lying around

For what it's worth, ADB and S-video are pretty much interchangeable.

Not all S-video cables though. Some cheapo ones short the two ground pins together, which will damage your keyboard. Check with a multimeter before using to ensure a 1-to-1 mapping (each pin only connects to the same pin and no others) from each pin on one end of the S-video cable to the other, before use. This is what I did and I've been using an S-video cable in this way for my ADB keyboards.

Awesome tipp thanks! Any amazon S-video cable you know works for sure?

Here's Tinkerboy's converter. Here's Hasu's list of converters.

I don't know if they ship to Europe.

Here's a known-good S-Video cable.
