IBM has this nice USB Keyboard but only has Linux drivers (aside from Windows and OS/2). Would I be able to use it with a Powerbook using the Linux drivers or would I need a program like USB Overdrive, etc.?

Am I ready for the Mac? I want a 60G iPod!!!!!

Keyboard driver? Never installed one. All the regular keys should just show up, but you could need something like USB Overdrive if it has some funky custom stuff for quick launches and such.

Any standard USB keyboard will work on a Mac. But the Option and Command keys (aside from not being labelled correctly) will be reversed.
