- FF(> Is there any problem with connecting the SE's extended keyboard
- FF(> to the PB170? Would power drain be a problem.

- The ADB extended does not conform to Apple's low power desktop bus specs, and
- does not have the little symbol on the bottom (almost-closed circle) that
- indicates it is safe.
-
- I have two models of ADB extended, two of ADB non-extended, and none of them
- have the low-power desktop bus symbol on the bottom. My conclusion is that it
- is not recommended to plug any Apple keyboard into your PB.
-
- The manual claims it is actually possible to drain the battery while the PB is
- plugged in if you plug anything but low-power ADB devices into the PB.
