Can someone explain the difference (if any) between a Microsoft InPort mouse
and A PS/2-compatible mouse? I am assuming there is a difference and that I
would not be able to plug my InPort mouse (which fits into a card for the PC
bus) into a PS/2-type mouse port. Is there some kind of adapter to allow the
use of an InPort mouse on a PS/2 type port?
