USB mouse and keyboard on new mac

I have significant arthritis in both wrists and the new Magic Mouse and perhaps Keyboard will be too low/flat. Can I use my current USB mouse and keyboard on the new 27" Mac? I had the same problem with the Bluetooth mouse and stayed with my USB mouse and keyboard with my current Mac.

iMac 27″, macOS 10.13

MAC Sonoma 14.5 Causing Mouse issues? The left click button on my wired Kensington rollerball stopped working. I thought it was broke. I ordered a new one. In the meantime, I plugged in all my spare cordless mouse into my anchor data portDriver/software and had some issues with my mouse, cursor, jumping around. Does the new software not support plug and play devices?

Microsoft Intellipoint Mouse and Keyboard I've had a Microsoft Intellipoint mouse and keyboard on my MacBook Pro for a long time, without any issues. Now, they both have stopped working. I'm thinking the latest Apple s/w upgrade might be the cause? If that's what it is, is there a workaround for it?

Microsoft Sculpt Keyboard and Mouse My MS Wireless Sculpt Keyboard and Mouse (Ergonomic) stopped working in 2023. Earlier this year, the mouse started giving trouble on my 2020 Macbook Pro 13. This is a USB connection and the Mac only got USB-C ports. After using both 3rd party and Apple OG adapters, it was only partially working i.e. the scroll wheel is not supported anymore As of last week, Aug 1st 2023, my computer also is not supported. this is not working on other MacBooks either but works on PC Any pointers on what must be going on.. how to further troubleshoot this?
