Before I lay down some cash, does anyone know the difference between
Apple USB keyboard models A1243 and MB110LL/A? From the online
images, I can't tell the difference.
Any given Apple part has two or three part numbers. The MB.... is a
sales product ID. The A.... is something else that I don't quite
understand, but I run into it most often on batteries, where it isn't
very helpful because the A numbers appear to be REUSED after a few
years (e.g., I seem to remember that there are several different
batteries marked A1071, and they aren't interchangeable). Then there
is a repair part number, which looks something like 666-1234, which is
the most specific of all -- in fact, the same identical part (e.g., a
G4 power supply box) may have MORE than one of those numbers,
depending on what machine it went in.
So all of this is a roundabout way of saying that you may indeed be
looking at the very same part under both numbers.
