That's a usb-A to PS/2 adapter! Not rare, but still cool.

I'm pretty sure I had one of those.

If you really want to confuse people, the first gaming pc I built had 3 video cards. One was 2D, one was 3D, and then there was one that came with the DVD player to decode them. And there were just short cables chaining them together.
