I don't know what it is, but I won some sort of site drawing for an
Apple accessory, but not an Apple- branded one. It is on its way from Shenzhen on the Chinese mainland. Probably a device charger or cable(s). -- 230,000+ Americans will never recover from the incompetence of Donald Trump, and 200,000 more may die by the middle of January. ![]() |

I have a pretty good selection of keyboards here and I really like the feel of the old IBM Type M but the clicky thing makes my wife nuts so I use a back lit soft key Logitech most of the time. I am also getting pretty used to wireless so cords tend to irritate me. My keyboard is usually in my lap and the mouse runs on the arm of my chair. |

It's around here somewhere I think. I have about 2 dozen keyboards here. |

I've got three hardly ever used Apple issue keyboards, wired and bluetooth, sitting in a drawer. I still prefer keyboards that kind of remind me of an IBM Selectric typewriter. Mostly, I used "clacky" and cheap MacAlly keyboards. If the incoming keyboard is a clacky clunky type, I'll give it a serious whirl. I can send you a model M if your Apples can handle a real PS/2 keyboard. That is the original buckling spring keyboard IBM gave people who were moving from Selectrics. I doubt it would work, even if a connector adapter could be found. The key maps are different and without a way to remap them, you'd not get it to work. -- Nearly 230,000+ Americans will never recover from the incompetence of Donald Trump. ![]() |

I doubt the protocol is that much different tho. Didn't we all steal it from Xerox or something? A mouse and a keyboard use the same Com spec. The cable on a Model M is plug in so it is easy to swap. |
