[comp.sys.mac] ADB and what you shouldnt do

shibumi@well.UUCP (09/07/87)

DONT TRY THIS AT HOME:
Connecting two macs to one ADB keyboard.  One mac usually wins.  The other
macs ADB unit frys.

Someone thoughtfully tried this on my machine.  I am looking for a place to
hide the body.

What sort of Mac got its ADB fried, and what is the repair expense?
Will Apple cover this under warranty (grave doubts)?
