>> Er, all of Apple's computers with ADB ports only have one ADB port
(who cares if the quote isn't exact, I'm quoting myself :)

Well, I found out that I was mistaken - the Macintosh IIs have two ADB ports.
I'm posting this to avoid the flood of mail that would be inevitable if I
allowed my mistake to stand uncorrected much longer (I've already gotten 2
letters, and I just posted it yesterday! :)... I still think that there's
absolutely no need for more than one ADB port, just like there is no need for
more than one SCSI port, but I guess it is convenient if the chaining through
the keyboard breaks on a computer like a IIGS... I apologize for my error, but
the general nature of the post still stands (although, since Apple never even
put ONE SCSI port in the IIGS, I guess there is SOME reason to complain... :)
