Hi guys,

I want to know can I use Apple Wired Keyboard on Vista ? Will all the keys work ? How about in gaming ?

Otherwise Im looking for a keyboard that works equally fine with Vista as well as Leopard.... Any suggestions ? (wired only)

Thanks :)

nobody knows ? ;)

^^^ Yes it works, you may need to remap a few keys if needed. Since Boot Camp is officially supported by Macs you can be sure that the Apple keyboards will work on Windows.

Assign the command key to the windows key in Macs and you are pretty much set.Also you need to do some remapping.
And ya more more thing.Thanks for the suggestion or rather an unintended idea.I am going to take a hint.
