USB or Cocolino/ps2?
« on: November 27, 2005, 11:31:15 AM »
Hi All,

I’m looking to upgrade my mouse and keyboard soon, the keyboard is an easy choice, I'm going for one of the silver keyboards from AmigaKit but I cant decide which type of mouse to get, USB (as I have a spider)or a cocolino & a PS2 mouse.

Does having a USB mouse use a lot of system resources compared to its counterpart? and I take it you can only use a USB mouse in WB? so is there any way to get round using it outside WB for early start-up etc or do you have to plug a standard mouse in?

Thanks in advance :-)

I was thinking about the MX1000, I have its baby brother the MX750 on another system and thats been a good buy.

My only concern really was the system resources.

Thanks for your replies :-)
