	There is no problem with hooking up ANY ADB device to the portable as
it has the standard two ADB ports on the back (as well as the two serial, one
SCSI, one audio out and one video out).
	The protable DOES NOT support colorQD, nor will it currently interface
to standard Apple monitors, though it does have a video out which is primarily
for NTSC/CCAM, etc.
	So the answer to your question, is yes to the keyboard and no to the
Apple Monitor, though another largescreen will work fine...
