When I purchased the MacIvory I also purchased a Symbolics keyboard and mouse as well as an adapter box that plugs into the ADB connector on the Mac. The adapter box has a button which serves to power on the system. I'm not sure if the Symbolics keyboard that I acquired is identical to yours though. > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] > On Behalf Of [email protected] > Sent: Sunday, February 06, 2005 3:22 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [SLUG] MacIvory keyboards > > > "Richard E.
