Doesn't work on my Apple Al KB ...

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...
