You sir are a genius. That is such an excellent idea....I wonder why Apple
didn't think of that.....because you are right. The majority of potential
Windows switchers would probably have that type of mouse/keyboard connector
and not USB.
Er, all my PCs have USB k&m and they're all 600MHz or slower. Same at work, except they're all around 3GHz...
Here, we've only just started getting USB mice; keyboards are still PS2 standard; we get Gateways and Dells. USB keyboards are optional.
The little USB-PS/2 converters we get with these systems work with mice, but not keyboards.
The ones I've seen are not converters but simply connection adapters. The mouse itself sense the adapter and switches from USB to PS/2.
Belkin makes a converter. I have a box that plugs into the USB port on my laptop, into which I plug a PS/2 keyboard & mouse.
