| Aug 12, 2015 at 17:28 | comment | added | syntaxerror | "You could completely disable USB too if you want" Yes...BUT...in this case I would recommend using one of the good ol' PS/2 mice. Because, to connect a mouse the modern way, you DO need an USB port. And supposing that, once logged on, some folks can get around quite well w/o mouse, they might simply connect another USB device to that "mouse" port. That's why it's called Universal Serial Bus: you can connect either hardware to this bus. There are no USB ports which are "only for mice" ;-) | |
