Do You Need to Know About USB? Several PA-RISC workstations to be introduced during 1999 require a USB keyboard and mouse. Apart from the addition of three PC-style keys to the keyboard and a scroll wheel to the mouse, most users won't notice the difference once the system is set up. And the person setting up the system is likely to notice only a different connector shape. However, you need to absorb this presentation: • if you plan to supply your own keyboard or mouse, or • if you have been using other PS/2 devices, or • if you have been considering a port of a PC or iMac USB device, or • if you need a keyboard and mouse cable longer than 2.5m, or • if you simply lament the passing of HP-HIL. This presentation does not apply to Intel-based VISUALIZE workstations, as they have had USB ports for some time (as have most PCs), and like all NT Workstations, are awaiting Windows 2000 (aka NT 5) for full USB support.
