I need a USB keyboard and USB mouse for the Sawtooth right? Am I correct in thinking that there are no PS/2 ports? Is there anything from Radio Shack or Wal Mart I can buy or do I need to go the Apple store and get a keyboard there? I'm running OS 9.2.1.

Would this keybaord at Wal Mart work?:

Best,

Any keyboard and mouse should work, so long as they are USB, even for OS 9.

Buy a PS/2 to USB convertor. That's what I did. You can find them at Best Buy or Amazon.
