 Yup.  Believe it or not, I have no systems that *require*  a USB
 keyboard or mouse.  One of these days when I see a need for one,
 maybe. 
And I, of cource, have no machine that can take a USB keyboard...
I did see a USB (keyboard side) to PS/2 (host side) interface in one of
the catalogues. I think it handled a mouse as well. It was not cheak
(around \pounds 80.00 I think). I have no idea idf it was 'good' or not,
but such interfaces seem to exist commercially
