My apologies to Eric posting on a closed topic.
However, the thesis that started this is wrong. PS/2 is but one
implementation of I2C bus technology and the I2C bus is still very
much alive in many control systems. A great many of the general
purpose micro controllers contain dedicated I2C ports and for that
reason support for PS/2 is essentially "free".

Folks,
Let's end this thread. This list is not the place to argue pro/con on
issues like this, especially when they pertain to other manufacturer's
products.

Just to be clear, I didn't mention any other manufacturers, simply stated my
thoughts about antique technology. If we have an Off Topic forum, but can't
post off topic subjects...what's the point?
As long as people are polite and don't resort to childish name calling, OT
forums can bring up interesting and useful topics for discussion. If the
List Operator doesn't want manufacturers names to be used, then that should
be stated up front.
