"I'm headed out to the Apple Store tonight to buy a Mac mini..."
...but I didn't come away with one. Turns out that if you want a configuration they don't have in stock, you have to order online (at least at the Indy store). So, I placed the order. It should be 3 weeks or so. I think I've already checked the status page 50 times or so. :-)
After some experimentation, it looks like I won't be able to use my good ole' keyboard, a Microsoft Natural Keyboard from the first generation. It's PS/2 only, and neither Windows nor OSX recognizes it with a USB adapter. Rats. The original NK was no-compromises. It has full sized, regularly spaced arrow and nav keys and takes up a huge desk footprint. I'll keep my eye out for solutions, but I may have to swap keyboards with Kathy.
