I sometimes plug a USB mouse into my Dell laptop and it works
immediately with no intervention on my part... just had to tweak my
xorg.conf file for it. Don't have a USB keyboard, so I can't comment on
that. I also plug in a USB hard drive-- a regular non-SATA hard drive
assembled into an external hard drive case-- and only have to mount it
(because I disabled the default automount). USB is well supported in
Linux, so just about any distro should do these things just fine.

PS. Sorry for omitting the standard insult, seemingly required for this
list.
