# I watch

# Probably
the mouse port isn't wired to take a keyboard - for some reason a lot of manufacturers think it cute to make them device-specific by leaving a wire off here and there, despite the fact they should work the same was as USBs.

Bastards.

# yes
when ours buggered up that wouldn't work for us, our techy friend laughed at us for trying to plug a keyboard into it, but we thought it made sense. Because this pc is ancient we had to get an adaptor thing.

# i've been thinking

# Yup
keyboard can be emulated with a mouse, and so long as you don't have a thesis to write or a Doom tournament to win you can get by easily enough.

But mouse emulation ALWAYS sucks, always.

Have you considered obtaining a USB peripheral or 2?

# nope, i have 2 sockets free
i have got an old comp with ps2 ports that work, i might see if i can fiddle that one and see, it'll mean installing stuff so i can see this weekend being a big techy one.
thanks for the idea though, a usb keyboard would be a workaround.
