have 2 original Apple Extended II Keyboards (M3501) for sale. These are some of the most solid keyboards ever made.

One is in good condition ($25 + shipping), the other in "fair" condition (one of the ADB ports is missing($15 + shipping).

I've been using the good one, and am only selling to go wireless (bluetooth).

Note: these are ADB keyboards.. you need an older Mac, or something like a Griffin iMate (see other post where I am selling that) which would allow use of the keyboard with either USB-equipped Mac or PC

------------------------------------------------

The iMate USB to ADB adapter is the perfect companion for your USB equipped Mac. ($20 + shipping)

It allows you to continue to use your favorite ADB mice, keyboards, trackballs, trackpads, hardware dongles and other ADB peripherals.

The iMate is also the ultimate cross platform compatibility device. With Windows support you can now use your existing Mac keyboards, mice, trackballs, and trackpads to control both a Mac and a PC. And since USB is fully hot swappable a simple switchbox is all you need to control multiple computers.
System requirements

Mac: Mac OS 9.1 or greater, Mac OS 10.3.9 or older, USB port

PC: Windows 98, Me, 2000 or XP, USB port

iMac Computers: Built in support in ROM. iMac updates are required for Rev A and Rev B models (233 Mhz) when using ADB devices with custom drivers.

Mac "Wake from Sleep": Please note wakeup from sleep mode is supported with ADB keyboards using the iMate but the power on key is used with external keyboards on PowerBooks G3s. This is different than previous PowerBooks that would awake with any keystroke.

Macs with USB Cards: PCI Macs with USB cards are supported. You need to download USB Card Support 1.2 or later to use the iMate (or any other USB device). Soft power on (keyboard power on) is supported by Macs with built in USB but is currently not supported by any USB cards.

PC Compatibility Note: PC support is generally limited to mouse and keyboard support. This also allows for the use of track pads, trackballs, and bar code scanners/wands, which use these drivers.

-------------------
$50 + shipping takes the whole lot.

Will trade iMate or a keyboard for a PocketDock with USB/line-out.
