I have a MacPlus at home, and suffer the nuisance of keyboard 
switching, since I work on a II in the office, with the new
extended keyboard. Since Apple appears never to have made two
keyboards the same, this has been a bit of a bother.

I recently noticed an ad for the DataDesk MAC-101 keyboard
(MacUser Jan, 88, p 201). From the photo in the ad, the keyboard
appears very similar (but not identical) to the Extended keyboard
on the II.

How compatible are they? Does anyone know anything about the 
company? If it really is nearly identical, it is certainly a
cheaper way of getting to work on one keyboard than buying an
SE to replace my Plus! But once burned (I don't mean by this 
company), twice shy, as they say.

Thanks for any comments or advice.
