Any benefit to or negative for using one verses the other? This is a dceision that doesn't have to be made right this instant, but I am starting to make some progress on my Hurco retrofit again, and its something I need to decide sooner rather than later. I have a USB Smoostepper for the motion interface to the servo drivers, and everything else. I was wondering if anybody had documented any issues or performance and stability issues with using the PS2 style interface for keyboard and mouse verse using the USB ports.
The computer I plan for the big mill is a stable machine that has plenty of both types of ports. It will get mounted inside one of the control cabinets, and have bulkhead connectors in the side of the cabinet for everything (monitor, thumb drive, etc) so I do need to do atleast some advance planning.
