You may well be right, it's a long time since I tried it and it was
probably a serial keyboard.

It depends on the port. Those darn PS2 ports can actually fry if
you hot-plug 'em. They aren't designed for that.

And once you fry the keyboard conroller you're in for a new motherboard.
The replacement part costs as much as the mainboard and the labor to
replace costs more than either.

Don't hot-plug anything! Or, keep lots of money around.
