I sure hope that kid stays in the drawer. :D

What I mean is: the 4P4C (or RJ10, if you prefer) connector on the early 
Macintosh keyboard cables didn't come out with a simple tug.  The mouse 
connector for the early mice was rock-solid, too, what with two thumbscrews.  
Of course, a rock-solid connection is normally what you'd want.

However, I can just see the kid falling out the drawer, clutching at the 
mouse/keyboard in an effort to save himself, and pulling a 16-pound (and 
$2,600) machine down on top of him.

(Ow.)


Best,

James Fraser
