Hi! Avid Mac lover over here but I found a lonely little one on the street up the road and want to see if it could be part of our Mac family. When I turn it on I get the o with the line through. I plugged in a windows USB keyboard to abort startup but it doesn't seem to recognise it. All my other keyboards are wireless mac ones which I guess won't work. Any suggestions?

Hand it over to Local Authorities.
Someone may be looking for it.

No one here would know if the item is deemed stollen or not.
So, I'd hand it over to Local Authorities, if found sitting about. Why? Because Information could be obtained from it, and I'm certain the owner wouldn't want their data hacked. Would you?
Yes, please use Apple Recycling Programs
Thank you, I did try that but it doesn't register my keyboard to log the keystrokes. Any ideas?
