because if the PC world would get its head out of it's ass and phase out obsolete hardware like floppy drives, PS2 ports would ALSO become obsolete.

USB is hot-swappable, you can put a hub in a keyboard, so that one connection does double-duty, and adds 2 more ports to your comp, I am pretty sure that PS2 doesn't have power, which means optical mice (which are MUCH nicer than ball mice) can only be USB (don't quote me here, i'm guessing on that last one).
