| USB or PS/2 ? |

IMO USB is the way to go if you really need hot-swapping. Many people don't however...I personally use PS/2 for IPAC (I never unplug it) and USB for mouse devices (for my swappable panels). |

I've hot-swapped both ports and never had a problem (I've been using PCs since 1990) I do have a USB port though that will shut down the computer if I hotswap. I don't think it's wired up right... |

Unplugging/replugging a mouse might lose mouse control, but I'd still have keyboard control and vice versa. --- End quote --- I've seen unplugging mice lock systems several times... --- Quote ---My general rule for USB/PS2 is that if it's portable or swappable, make it USB. If it's fixed in a cabinet, go with the PS2. --- End quote --- Exactly :) |
