I got that reference. Fuck, I'm old.
Please explain? I get that the chubby bird is speaking assembly, but I'm sure there's more to it than that?
PS2 keyboards use interrupts rather than polling in USB, meaning every time a key is pressed the CPU stops what its doing to process it.
I'm wondering, is it still the case for mobos with Super IO?
Super IO does still use interrupts as far as I know. The PS/2 protocol is interrupt-driven, so it's not possible to use a PS/2 keyboard or mouse without interrupts.
