It's a ThinkPad.  It has a single port that should work for a PS/2 mouse, and
you can only attach a keyboard using this special Thinkpad-specific splitter,
and then I can't get the mouse running.  Could just be that the splitter for
this ThinkPad isn't the same as the splitter for the one I used to use.
*sigh*.
