Thread: P55M-UD2 PS /2 Mouse

I'm looking at a new machine with the P55M-UD2. I'm a bit confused about the keyboard / mouse pS /2 port. Does it accept EITHER a keyboard OR a mouse Can you get some sort of splitter and connect both ?

It is possible to design a PS/2 mouse port such that it can be split, and the splitters that support this are readily available and inexpensive (under $10, sometimes under $5).
