I also wondered if my USB CD writer would work on MY IIgs.
Who will write the drivers and software for such devices. Are
we speaking of merely keyboards and mice here? Don't they also
require their own individual drivers? I have to tend to agree with
Willi and Greg, it seems a little far fetched, and I believe anything
is possible with enough effort, but this will require effort for each
and every different device. Just a little too much I think.
