i had a problem getting the PS/2 port to work on my laptop. Even had to call Tech Support! Basically, the only reason I can think that PS/2 is better than USB is that it doesn't use a USB port.

PS/2 is on the way out, anyway. Don't be suprised if there are USB only machines being designed out there. If you want forward compaitbility, go USB
