    Keyboard adapter?

    Hello everyone!
    My friend's aunt just donated to me an old computer. It is a Pentium MMX 233Mhz. It is an older AT style computer that uses a keyboard with a 5-pin DIN style connector. My question is: is thare an adapter out there that will convert a standard PS/2 6-pin connector to the old 5-pin DIN style connector, or would I be better off just trying to find an old keyboard at a pawn shop, or on e-bay? Thanks in advance!
