Will they work together?

Also...any problems with the new keyboard when hooked to B/W G3 (will be using OS 9.1)

Thanks

I really don't know why there would be a problem in that configuration... I would bet it would be safe (got m$ keyboard and mouse hooked to a beige g3)

Optical IntelliMouse works fine with the Pro kb.
Haven't tried it on a B&W though.
Can't see why it wouldn't work. Except for the volume keys etc... just get the extensions and stuff for that.

Microsoft's optical mouse and trackball both work fine with my G4 pro keyboard and OS 9.1.

Actually, when you plug the MS mouse into the Apple keyboard opposing forces in nature combine to create a giant rift in the universe that will suck both you and your computer into the void.

No, wait, come to think of it they work fine together...
