I have a dedicated PC that I use as my Talkworks Answering Machine.

  The Keyboard , Mouse, and Monitor are plugged into a LinkSys electric
switch.
Talkworks notifies me of a new message by flashing the scroll lock light of
the keyboard. Of course unless the LinkSys is switched to this PC I can't
see the light because the keyboard does not have the focus. I suppose I
could just have a separate keyboard for this PC but I don't want yet
another keyboard on my desk nor is this PC close to my desk. So I thought I
would just use a AT Y cable and plug and mount the second keyboard so I can
see the flashing light.

I know there are PS2 Ys  and I suppose I could use one with adaptors but
is there such a thing as a AT Y cable ?
Has anybody used two AT Keyboards from one AT port?
