It should work if you buy a usb to ps2 connector like this on on ebay for 99p free delivery

And plug it into one of these ps2 to ascii adapters for £2.35 free delivery

I can't see why it won't work. At the price of these adapters it might be worth taking a chance, another option would be to find a cheap ps2 keyboard on ebay for a couple of pounds and use the second adapter, this WILL work.
