Nope, Macs rely on USB for most peripherals these days, plus Firewire for
devices (storage and video products mainly) requiring a higher bandwidth
bus.  ADB (Apple Desktop Bus) died a death with the iMacs if not before.

At least Apple seem to be embracing open standards these days, what with
USB and Firewire on the iMacs and PCI (and possibly AGP) on the desktop
boxen.
