Usb keyboars are handled by bios, so they are transparent and work well 
on FreeDOS. Except:

1) old machines don't have usb keyboard support or are buggy.
2) Notebooks have it working for longer than desktops.

As a side note, I can say that on *my* machine I have an adapter, 
because I use FreeDOS, win98, Linux, Qemu, VMware and Dosemu.. I had 
some problems in some combinations
