Why is it that Mac stopped making decent keyboards and now sell utter crap? I just got done taking a hammer to yet another one of these worthless usb abortions Mac switched to. In the last year I have gone through at least 6. They just quit working. I worked with that one for some time. It started typing two's all by itself so I flipped it upside down and beat on it to make that stop. Then it starts in on 0's. Then the caps lock key quits and half the letters go. I unplug it, plug it back in. Reboot the whole machine. Even turning it upside down and pounding on the damn thing only does so much. Why did they ever stop making those nice ADB keyboards? Or a much better question would be .... why did the cheap bastards do away with the ADB port so they could save a buck a unit? I would have thought Apple would be above such Intel-like behavior. Intel hacked the cache in a P3 to save a buck and called it a Celeron. Winmodem riser cards. The list goes on. Everytime I sit in front of a Mac anymore and have to look at one of those USB keyboards it just pisses me off. Is there some way I can cheaply get a trusty old extended keyboard to work on this miserable usb interface? Most adapters I have seen cost 50 or more. I am this close to taking a hammer to the whole thing.
