************ NeXT Says, Q: Will the 25Mhz color systems be able to use the new keyboard/mouse? A: There are no plans to support ADB keyboards for non-Turbo color systems until sometime next year. *********** Well, perhaps this time some of us will NOT be left out. All next has to do is make a soundbox kit for the oldr Color and Mono systems and then we too can take advantage of the ADB. Having seen the layout of the new keyboard all I can say is I like my origonal layout alot better! But then again, I have never used the new one, it may be great, I dunno. If NeXT is really on the ball they could make a soundbox with connectors for both the ADB and the old keyboards on it. I for one would love to take advantage of the ADB. Mabey someone will port some of the microprose games over ( or anything else you like ). I just hope NeXT comes through and makes a sound box ADB upgrade klit for owners of the old style computers, both mono and color. I don't suppose anyone at NeXT would care to comment on this? -- +=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+=+ = James "Zeke" Dehnert zeke@mode.css.gov = + SAIC Geophysical Div.
