More Video I/O and Mac KB - traddcliff - 09-14-2025

Does anyone with the video i/o expander use a Mac KB with it. 
Just wanting to know if it works. The product blurb says you can use a usb keyboard/pc computer. 
Checking before I get on board. There’s no way I’m buying a pc kb :)

Thanks

If apple ideology is keeping you from bying this expander, it's maybe not for you, you're missing out though... Wink

Sure…but that doesn’t answer my question does it. That’s just a pointless dig.the correct spelling is “buying”. Just kidding re: pc keyboard. I have limited real estate and funds in my current situation. 

Anyways the question maybe should have been has anyone tried using a Mac keyboard?
Main reason I ask is, at this point my eyes are pretty bad, using a monitor would be nice. The expander isn’t necessary, but it would be very helpful. So yes it is indeed for me, in a more useful way than you probably thought, before poking. 

@admin ya I wrote XOR first, and he said he wasn’t sure, “check with the forum”. I did a search first…and got nothing. So I asked the question.

Thanks.

I'm sorry it wasn't meant to offend you, bad joke i guess... and a bad habbit of mine, hard to control irony and sarcasm for me sometimes.

I have no apple keyboard laying around but I can try to borrow one at work and test it out if nobody else can answer here.
