Posted by: AEChadwick on 2022-08-21 19:02:50 this is old news (i got the mouse on eBay years ago), but I haven't seen anyone else throw this flex
here is my NeXT two-button ADB mouse attached to a PowerBook 550c

Posted by: joshc on 2022-08-21 19:12:32 Nice. You can do the same with the NeXT keyboards which were also ADB. They're a bit pricey these days, I should've held onto mine. |

I also can’t help but notice that you’ve done the US Keyboard mod - I assume you took a standard US blackbird keyboard and swapped the key caps from a 190/5300 board? It was someone on this forum who I heard about that mod in the first place from, maybe it was you! |

I should've held onto mine. (we're not even going to talk about the early 2000s “why do i still have THIS?” purge; we lost several good men that day...) |

I also can’t help but notice that you’ve done the US Keyboard mod buddy gave me a broken PowerBook 190, it sat in a box with a broken 520c for almost two decades until i finally got a 550c... THEN i read about that mod! here at the MLA just like you! |
