I do remember the MS-floated idea of PC-98--the white
paper is buried
somewhere in my collection of MSDN CDROMs. No keyboard or
mouse port, no serial port, no parallel port, no floppy controller.
It's all gonna be USB
USB is something of a miracle I'd have to say. Many good success
stories here. Most recent one, getting a Keyboard/Mouse adaptor
for $22 at Staples and having it "just work" on a G4 tower... This after
carefully reading the packing and finding *not one* word saying that
it would work on Macs. Have problems with USB Hubs over W98se
though.. I tend to chalk these up to Win shortcomings.
