The PS/2 interface was designed in 1987, yet 30 years later we still see it on PCs.

I discuss why in this video.

You can find out more about the PS/2 port on Wikipedia at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PS/2_port

There's a good discussion about it on Reddit too at https://www.reddit.com/r/hardware/comments/2r5886/why_is_ps2_still_being_put_on_motherboards/
