Portable Trackball and Keyboard Pinout

Hey all, I have a keyboard and trackball from a Portable. I've been reading the service documents and it says they're ADB in a 34-pin ribbon cable. Does anyone know the pinout of the ribbon? It'd be cool to use these with my desktop Macs.

Only the trackball is ADB. the Keyboard is scancode based and requires a controller to be used on something else.
