HAHAH! Just for the hell of it, I plugged in my Apple Pro Keyboard into my PeeCee. It works!! Not only that but get this:

Apple key = Windows Start Key
Volume controls work in WIN2K!

What is interesting to note that the F13-F15 keys + help/home/pageup + forward delete/end/pagedown keys seem to be mapped to the keys that would be in the same position on a PeeCee keyboard BUT the number pad keys are mapped to the keys that are printed on the keyboard.

anway.. it's interesting. and the device manager reports it as "HID Human Interface device" and "HID Keyboard device"
