I have this mouse.  Just plug it into the PS/2 mouse port.  Are there
computers which have USB but not PS/2?  What is the big fuss about USB

And do there exist _normal sized_ keyboards which use USB?  All
I've seen keyboard-wise is those tiny cramped jobs and the mega
"internet wireless console" jobs.
