I own a 512KE, and really enjoy being able to have the keyboard connector on the front of the Mac. I've used many II's and SE's, and just don't like the idea of having to S T R E T C H the very short keyboard cord provided with the newer Mac's around the back of the II's. Wouldn't it be much easier to just put an ADB connector on the front of the computer? My vote goes for moving at least one connector back to the front of the new Mac's.
