I've got a keystick. The URL is in spanish, but clicking on the photos will enlarge them and you'll see the item: some kind of add-on that is put above cursor keys to fake a joystick. That item is mostly useless now, either because the keyboard has not enough space surrounding the cursor keys to place it or because the keys are too low to be pressed.
Looking to the pictures, it's hard not to mention those "cages" that came with some mouses and were meant to be glued to computer case. The keystick had one 😉
Also, I've got a USB to USB cable. It was used to transfer files between two computers, but I'm afraid that it's not supported in later Windows.

Why not using a null modem cable? Simpler, cheaper and faster than using two modems. A better use for that circuit would be using that circuit to connect a fax and a modem to get a cheap, low resolution, black and white scanner (or printer). Some years ago two coworkers use a similar circuit to test faxes, rendering two faxes into a copier.

I used some of them with financial printers (i.e.: Olivetti MB2, Wincor 4915, etc), to make a printer work with a serial cable for another model. I know that it would be better to replace the cable, but sometimes that mean to wait another day.
