   Nope. Looking at the connector for more than half a second would
tell you that. The keyboard from pre-Mac SEs (128/512, Mac Plus) is
usable pretty much only those computers (maybe Lisas), while the mouse
may work on the //e and //c

   Also, the original mac keyboards were lacking in modern
conveniences like arrow keys, the control key, and the like. That puts
you at a serious disadvantage when trying to run most Apple II stuff.
