> ... why would you want to use a USB keyboard or mouse with a classic Mac?

Because optical ADB mice are hard to come by? There are a few, but they're rare.

A good USB implementation might also allow you to hook up storage devices, which would be pretty nice.




Aye, I didn't even know they made any, so I hacked up an adapter: https://github.com/ehalferty/arduino-usb-to-adb

There are other (non-DIY) USB-to-ADB projects out there taking shape, too.

But I'm also hoping someone starts making Nubus cards for VGA, USB mass storage, etc. It would just take an FPGA or perhaps even an overclocked teensy.
