That's how I read that sentence the first time, too, but you can parse that sentence so it's true: Two USB ports which are electrically identical are superior

Two USB ports which are electrically identical are superior to two PS/2 ports, one for keyboard and one for mouse, which are electrically different.
- Gormo 13y agoIIRC, PS/2 mouse and keyboard ports are electrically identical, and the reason that they can't be used interchangeably is that addressing for PS/2 devices is hardcoded at the software level, i.e. the BIOS always expects a keyboard connected to a specific port and a mouse connected to the other.
