Kids, I use SUN Type 5C keyboard as I type this that I adapted myself for HP Z workstation series. I actually remember when Apple had really good hardware, all SCSI drives, cable-free design, opening up a case and upgrade a component was a breeze and a joy compared to the ugly and dangerous cases of PCs with their burrs and sharp edges. And you could take a hard drive from a cheap pizza-box Quadra and swap it into the top of the line desktop - things would work right away. And that could be a generic SCSI drive. Then, the suits in Cupertino and their Living God Jobs decided to kill clones, Be OS and lost a lot of vendour support, from hardware to software. I remember when Global Village announced they would stop hardware support for Apple, and it snowballed from there. Then they started jumping CPU chips, busses and controllers, cutting corners on the substance while keeping up appearances... There is always a new generation of suckers on the conveyer belt.
I still have an Apple pizza box, running a server on NetBSD for my internal network.
