The bracket would be a good idea, but I don't think my landlord would
appreciate it (I don't have a table that I would be comfortable attaching a
bracket and monitor to...).

As to the keyboard and mouse...well, I don't actually have anything that
uses ADB, either, so I'd still have a keyboard & mouse specifically for the
Next system. I don't have enough room on my desk for that right now.

somewhere? I did some poking around with Google, but could only find bits
and pieces.
