All Macs

  • Buttonless Floppy/CD/DVD slots

Older Macs

  • Bootable RAM disks

All modern Macs

  • Autosensing ethernet ports
  • Support for wireless keyboards in Open Firmware (so option-key on boot and other Boot Commands work). It even works via USB dongles, connected via a hub (like the D-link DBT-120). This support is only in Macs that had an option for built-in Bluetooth.
  • Booting from USB and Firewire (so you can use an iPod as an emergency boot disk)
