kudos:7 | First glimpse of a Haswell mobo »www.fudzilla.com/home/item/30657···herboard

Monroeville, PA | Looks like *gasp* a motherboard.
My vision for something "revolutionary" - everything connects via thunderbolt. Monitors, keyboards, mice, everything. Think of how easy that would be for people. No more wondering where to plug things into, there are just 8 TB ports on the back. |

kudos:7 | Can't wait to see Haswell go up against IB-E in gaming benchmarks, especially in multi-card configs. That will determine which socket I buy into.

Why does "the board of the future" still have a PS/2 port? |

Probably for people with mechanical keyboards to have insanely high key rollover.

Up till about a month ago - I still used one. Actually I had to use the adapter for AT (5 pin DIN) to PS/2 for my keyboard.

It has a PS/2 port because that's part of the ATX specification. So for the board to be properly certified ATX it needs the port (even if nobody uses it.) |
