I have heard several cases where hot-swapping a ps/2 keyboard has fried
the controller chip. If I recall correctly, some motherboards are more
sensitive to this than others, so beware.
FWIW, KVM (keyboard,video,mouse) switches have come down in price
tremendously, so you might want to check them out as an alternative to
hot-swapping your keyboard / mouse....
