This is quite common. Must PS/2 machines that I have seen freeze if the PS/2 mouse is unplugged (or plugged sometimes) while the machine is on. Some if not most of the newer ones do not have this annoyance. Strangely, many of those machines that freeze do not exibit the same behaivior if the PS/2 keyboard is unplugged during operation.
