[QUOTE="2cvbloke, post: 1012995, member: 199791"] It's referred to as an AT port, and you can indeed get adaptors, usually quite cheap off ebay, just put in AT to PS/2 adaptor (or PS2, incase of mis-spellings)... :) But as pointed out, it's not a 486, it's a very odd AMD K6-2 system (odd as in it has the old AT style board from an era when the PS/2 ATX standard was pretty much the norm), but still worth resurrecting, people are collecting vintage computers that 10 years ago you couldn't shift for 50p, now you're lucky to get 'em for less than £50!!! o_O [/QUOTE]
