Fortunate there are both types of ports and you can happily use your ABD
keyboard on the new G3's. I spoke to someone at a Mac only store over the
weekend and they predicted large sales of substitute keyboards.

Subject: [WinMac] New G3s keyboards

I've been needing to upgrade my Mac and just last week was about to pick
one out and to my surprise they iMac'd the G3s! Distinctive design, but I
can only think how dated it's going to look in a very short time. Like
buying the trendiest clothing you'll be out of style next time the wind
changes direction. I wish there were a more "normal" one available or that
I had thought to get one sooner before they did this.

My question though is this. Does anyone know if these new G3s come with
those same small, squishy keyboards and round mice like the iMacs have?
I'm still using the same old keyboard from my Quadra 650 days and I like it
very much but my understanding was that the new G3 keyboards connect via
USB and not ADB.
