Re(2): RE: RE: [SunRescue] Real ISP

This I think is the longest non-related thread.....

I really like NeXT style keyboards and actually tried for awhile
to find some sort of converter but I couldn't. I've never used a
NeXT keyboard, but they look really cool. SGI is cool because
you can use a standard PS/2 keyboard & mouse with them (supposedly)

Eric Ozrelic
