USB to PS2 adaptor or keyboard by timmotee
Does anyone know where I could get a USB (female) to PS2 (male) adaptor? Alternatively I could use just a PS2 keyboard I've gone to 5 different computer shops today and they all look at me like I'm mental for even asking, but I kinda need ...
I'm moving to VN in June. Cleaning out the house and packing I found 2 of what you needed. (I used to be a computer repair tech years ago) They are out there! :) ZepI'm in IT as well and agree, they are out there and in the west are no ... Read More

There are a few computer shops just round the corner from Phatty's Bar and Restaurant which are behind the Sun Wah Tower. I have found them a great place to find "out of date" or unusual bits and pieces for computers. If you take the ... Read More

Google Maps Navigation by timmotee
Hi all, Was wondering of anyone has google maps navigation working for android here in HCM? I can get route preview only on both my devices here. It was working in Germany on both devices last week. I saw a thread from Jaitch in 2012 where it ...
