Hi. I just picked up 2 LC475s from a local computer place. The guy was
just gonna throw them out, so he gave them to me for free. I consider
that a heck of a deal. Unfortunately the problem is that they didn't
come with the keyboards and mice. Does anyone know of a good place on
the web that I could pick up a set? I looked at eBay, but wanted to see
if there was anything cheaper first.

Try the LEM-SWAP list. Oodles of stuff. I, like most Mac collectors 
(ammumulators?) have a bunch of rectangular mice and the small keyboards 
that originally came with that computer.

The shipping is probably more than the items are worth.  For things 
like this, it is good to state your geographical location.  That way 
if someone knows of a local supplier you can skip the shipping costs. 
For example, in Austin, TX, the Goodwill Computer Works store has a 
bunch of Extended Keyboard IIs for either $5 or $10 and mice are 
under $5.  I haven't checked the keyboard prices in a while which is 
why I'm uncertain on those.

Also, I forgot to mention, I'd also be looking for a couple of Ethernet
connections for them so I can connect them to my LAN.
Also at the Goodwill Computer Works store, their Mac Network Card bin 
has several LC PDS Ethernet cards for $5 each.  Some are AAUI and 
some are (or were last time I examined the selection) 10baseT.   If 
they only have AAUI, they also have some AAUI to 10BaseT transceivers 
but that adds to the cost.

Of course that doesn't help a lot if you're not in the Austin area.

You might also try Small Dog electronics.  In the past they have had 
a bunch of the Umax keyboards and mice either on their Garage Sale 
page or their Parts page for very low prices.  I don't know if they 
still have any.
