I heared USB has a higher data transfer rate, so the mouse will react
a little faster.

usb has a higher sampling rate than ps2 so it will respond better and more
accurately. But there is a program out there that you can use to increase
the sampling rate of the ps2 port if I recall correctly.

I use the best USB mouse in the whole world for gaming, the Logitech MX-
510. It kicks butt, is very smooth. I got the recommendation from
G4/TechTV people, and they were right about this mouse, it works great for
gemes.
