I¹ve got a g4 giga ethernet, running 10.3.9 and using a Q-dock to convert my ADB apple adjustable keyboard to the USB. Worked just fine. The keyboard just died, time to replace it.
Never used a Dr. Bott (is this a KVM switch) but see no reason why it wouldn¹t work through a switch. If it¹s a KMV it just makes a straight through connection from the input device to the output connector. Don¹t thing it would hurt to try anyway. geno On 10/14/05 9:10 PM, "TVirkkala" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I'm still an ADB Mac user.
