I just checked the back of my Cyrix MediaGX 180 but it doesn't have a PS/2
mouse connector. It has the standard serial mouse port. The setup, however,
consists of ports that are connected to the motherboard via ribbon cables so I
guess the assemblers chose to put a serial mouse port in lieu of a PS/2 mouse
port. The way it looks, one could easily change the setup. I havwen't opened up
the case to check, but I think there might be a ribbon connector plug for a
PS/2 mouse port.
By the way, what case does your unit have? Mine uses a regular mini tower
casing. I bought it from Compex in Quad Carpark I in Makati over two years ago.
God bless.
