I have seen ps/2 keyboard/mouse splitter cables for something like $15. Would this work for two mice, or is it only for 1 kb and 1 mouse?
: I have built the splitter usung stephans design and it works nicely.
: Be sure to TEST IT before you plug it into your brand spanking new P3 as they have a nasty habit of destroying motherboards if built incorrectly (getting the 5v and data lines crossed for example).
: But if you are reasonably careful and competant when you put it together there should be no trouble.
: The most expensive part of the whole thing is some experimental board to put it together on :-)

: you may also want to check the avilibility of the required IC before you start, I had to send away for mine.
: hope this helps
