Macintoshes...

This is roundabout. I work at an ISP. I have to figure out how to work
a Macintosh, so as to explain to customers how to set theirs up. This
sounds reasonable - so the salesguy produces a Mac SE. Unfortunately, it
has no mouse or keyboard. SO I go about looking around. Can't afford $90
for a mouse and keyboard that the only-Mac-shop-in-town has, so I go looking
for used stuff. I turn up a Macintosh 512K (Sadly abused. The people
KEPT IT IN THE GARAGE SO TI WOULDN'T GIVE THEIR VCR A COMPUTER VIRUS.)
Unfortunately, it is also missing the keyboard and mouse.

So, how easy is it to crock up a keyboard and mouse for either machine?
Can I modify IBM gear to fit the bill?

As for the virus bit, that is 100% true! Their frind told them it could
spread thru the power lines. :)

More information on either box would be appreciated...
