Doesn't work on a windows keyboard either...
Yet it works on our (white) keyboard on a G5, Black Pro keyboard on
a G4, and AL keyboard on a Mac Pro...
Just tried it on each...
If you're using the AL keyboard with a system that did not originally
ship with one, there are a number of things that don't work, for
instance, holding down a key at startup to change the mac's behavior,
like the C or S or V keys...I keep an old imac kb laying about and
just plug it into the AL keyboard for those times when I need to start
up this way. Drove me mad until I figured it out...
