I used to work with someone who would bring his own keyboard to work.  He had
one with the old big DIN connector and a ps/2 adapter.  The Dell workstations
we had still supported ps/2 ports.  I was curious as to when he would have to
switch to a usb adapter, however I think he would've been ready to retire at
that point.
