Is there a Y-adapter to split the ADB cord from my IIgs into two cords,
one connected to the keyboard and the other to the mouse?  The connect
I have been using to plug in my keyboard has gone bad, so I have a 
functioning keyboard, and a sometimes functioning mouse.  :-(  I've
noticed a weird problem that corresponds to this--sometimes my computer
will start to go super-slow (takes 5 secs to draw the control panel screen)
and will only go back to normal (actually "fast") when I unplug the mouse
from the faulty connector.

No, I'm not handy with a solder iron...  :-)  And I don't think I really
trust my local Apple dealer to fix this, but that's another story...

Any suggestions to keep me from having to buy a new keyboard would be
greatly appreciated!
