Just got a new G3 and it does come with the same keyboard and mouse as an
imac. But they do have adb ports so you can use an older Mac keyboard or go
with a PC keyboard as Dan suggests. We always hated the cheap keyboards
they sent even before the imac keyboard but the imac keyboard is just too
small! We still would just cough up the dough for an Extended Keyboard II
or use one of the many still in servi ce around here.
