I hadn't noticed that, and I have several ps2 keyboards including the 
legendary IBM clacker that could be used in place of the biblical jawbone 
of an ass, and when the battle had been won, plugged in and used as if it 
had never been unplugged.  I don't use it here because the keyclicks can 
be heard clear to the other end of the house.  But on the coco in the 
basement, I could probably get away with it. ;-)
