Lines: 28 The history: I just bought a Northgate keyboard for my Mac II Ci. It didn't work at all. I took it back to the Northgate store (I live in their home city), and got another one. It also didn't work at all. All that seems to happen is that keypresses jiggle the cursor a little bit, and no actual letters appear on the screen. The root of the problem? The tech support guy says that this keyboard seems to work on some IICi's but not on others. Does anyone know if Apple made any changes to the ADB for the Ci? If so, this could explain the problem. Please post or email any useful info so that I can get the engineers at Northgate off their butts.
