Yeah, you can buy apple keyboards signed by wozniak.

I'm guessing those ones are rubber domes? Look fairly new. They go up to F15, so, must be newer boards (the earlier you go, the less function keys mac keyboards have, lol).
If they're ALPs, $30 isn't too bad.

The design keyboard is roughly contemporary with the apple extended 2 keyboard, I believe. And yes, it is rubber dome (at least the one I came in to possession of), and not only that, you need an adapter to even use it. And they aren't cheap.

No one see's the irony in OP name and subject matter?

It would be more appropriate to say "almost everything IBM", I do prefer IBM, but I have non-IBM computers as well:
*iMac G3
*Commodore 64
*HP desktop (which I am selling, of course)

Probably would have had a lot more if I wasn't so picky :p

Eh.. That seller's username is "signedbywoz" and sells only stuff with Woz's signature ... What?
That looks a bit weird to me ... 356 items with Woz's signature sold so far? ...

OK, the auction descriptions have a picture of Woz signing the same type of item. But .. the mouse in this auction (http://cgi.ebay.ca/Steve-Wozniak-SIGNED-Vintage-Apple-Desktop-Bus-Mouse-II-/320444030728?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item4a9bf3df08) looks a little bit different than the mouse he is holding up in the photo. The mouse is more yellowed and the end of the Z is shorter.

Personally, I would never buy a ready-made signature. For me, an autograph is worth something only if I get it in person.

Apple IIgs "Woz edition" has the same signature. Cheap trick, and not the preferred IIgs.

It's time they rush and provide iPhone "Jobs edition", because their prices will skyrocket soon.

So if fourteen people bought the 3.5 disks, that means the seller made a profit of $224 on the shipping alone. Nice.

The Ebay seller told me Woz pissed in this mug during a late night soldering session.

Great minds think alike. :redface:

.....and for my next project:- get some old keyboards, a sharpie and autograph them with "Abraham Lincoln", then sell on eBay..........

Edit:-   get some old disks (more profitable) instead..........

Firstly, I need to sell my Ming Vase (mug) signed by Woz.

...and NO it is not P***, it is China tea (premium grade Tik Kwun Yum)........
      the P*** comes later...........

I would never ever wash that mug. If you drink from it, you drink pure excellence.

That's funny.

I'm tempted to sign "WOZ" on my iMac G3 in a sharpie.
