I received four email replies (and saw one followup posting).
Most people mentioned that the Apple IIGS keyboard is ADB
compatible, but much smaller, and should work on a Mac II (etc.)
One respondent said that the IIGS keyboard seems to have the
same layout as the "Standard" Mac ADB keyboard, but in a much
smaller package.  One person mentioned the Standard keyboard
as preferable to the "Enhanced" model, and I agree, but think
it still wastes too much space.

Too bad about the old keyboard; I found I was able to type
much faster on it than on the newer ones.  Anyway,
I'll check out the IIGS model.  Many thanks to att!occrsh!jdsb,
