I don't think you can call the Duke of Edinburgh Greek. His ancestry is mostly German. As I remember he was a Prince of Greece and Denmark. The European powers chose a Danish prince to put on the Greek throne and the last Greek royal family was descended from this Danish prince.

Pays yer money ............... You'll still have another cable to the USB port on the PC - ain't no signals on the keyboard cable. And you'll still have to by the adaptor. Or did you get something with the camera ? Dave >>Not really, Dave. Most keyboards are on a slide out shelf which would allow the cable to dangle. And a camera connection is only used for a minute or two whilst the pictures are transferred.. A mouse might be a different problem.
