Unbelievable : i looked all my mainboards, even very old ones have got fuses 
on AT keyboard, or near the PS2 port.
Some of them also have got fuses in the VRM part.
When there aren't fuses, they used 0-ohm, 1\4W resistances which act as a 
once-burn fuse.

IIRC, i saw a PC Chips M741LMRT with some 0-ohms in the PS\2 zone.
Not every PC Chips lack fuses..
