we monitor many frequencies. we listen always. came a voice, out of the babel of tongues, speaking to us. it played us a mighty dub.
i've been thinking about getting and adb-usb adapter for my apple extended keyboard

i still like the keyfeel on that thing and it seems a shame to leave unsued.

i'm curious how well it'll work in windows though

yeah I've been using an apple extended keyboard II with USB adapter in windows for a few months now.

the win key and alt keys are "swapped" - option is alt and cmd is win key. the = key in the keypad doesn't work. and the power key doesn't work. everything else is great.

i'm gonna have to disagree with you there.

i've run into enough of those that just felt like poo poo after a few years of use. mind you there's no telling how much poo poo had been spilled on/in them by that point, but i had an office full of them that just felt like mushy rear end (not in a good way)

you can also put together an adapter from a microcontroller board like an Arduino and open source software, I don't remember its name offhand but there's a "universal USB keyboard adapter" project that does ADB, Mac Plus, Sun, NeXT, Symbolics, and more.

that would also let you adjust the command/option key mapping for use with scrub-tier OSes if you really must
