Best Beige PS/2 keyboard and mouse for retro gaming build? (lemmy.world)

I’m looking for a mouse and keyboard that will work for my retro 98SE build while also being acceptable for playing on my windows 11 pc that’s connected via KVM at the same desk.

Requirement is for it to use PS/2 so I don’t have to connect another input device because the USB driver decided not to load on 98.

I’ve been trying to google for information but not getting a lot of good answers. Thanks in advance for your advice folks

I don’t think I can afford a Model M but I was able to find another IBM keyboard from the same era on eBay with some very minor cosmetic defects.

Good call on the intellimouse. Thank you!
