 Mark raised the cup and toasted:

 "P<| Were there ever any other ADB devices, besides the keyboard and
    | mouse?  ADB was more then just a clever way to hook the mouse to
    | the keyboard, wasn't it? Was ADB like the USB of it's day, or was
    | it invented so Steve Jobs didn't need to tell people how to plug
    | in a mouse with thumb screws?

To my side I have an ADB trakball.  :)  And there are some Mac modems
that have a passthrough-tap to the ADB port for power.

And it definitely is more convenient than thumbscrews and having an
extra wire for the mouse coming out the back of the computer.
