I have been converting all my newer scanners to USB.
Less hassle than keyboard wedges with PS2. Try Worthdata.com.
Unfortunately, the PS2 scanners I have been using never break down. Good
luck.

I have been using a ps2 with good results, have not tried USB. Go to
SystemID for equipment if needed http://www.systemid.com/index3.asp.

Will be setting up a barcode (7.1) application and need to know what
would be the best choice for the scanner unit attachment. Have a choice
of a PS2 connector or USB connector. I can understand how the scan
output would be received by the application using the PS2 connector, but
how does the application see the results of the scan using the USB
connector? The USB would be the more simpler and cleaner way. The PS2
connector would need some sort of wye (Y) connector to accommodate both
keyboard and scanner.
Thanks in advance...
