PS/2 or USB
 
I just picked up a MS IntelliMouse Explorer and I was wondering which connection was the better choice.

Should I use the USB or PS/2 option? What are the pros and cons?

Thnx,

USB.

PS2 is old, slow ( if you dont tweak it) and not needed, USB all the way! http://www.procooling.com/ubb/smile.gif

Yeah, the only reason the adapter is included is for older computers, Win95, or Dos..

Well I use PS/2 since my comp has some USB issues. What sucks a little more is that mine has this adapter thats about 5" long, so the weight of the cable causes it to get loose, sending my mouse into hysterical fits. http://www.procooling.com/ubb/smile.gif

I use PS/2... I used PS2Rate so my mouse is just as smooth (if not smoother) as a USB mouse. When I get around to getting my iFeel mouse though, then i'll go USB.
