Apple: It was a proprietary technology developed by Apple and introduced in 1986 on the Apple IIGS and Macintosh SE.
Desktop: It was designed specifically for "desktop" peripherals used right at your workstation—primarily keyboards, mice, trackballs, and graphics tablets.
Bus: In computer hardware, a "bus" is a communication system that transfers data between components. ADB was a true bus because it allowed you to daisy-chain multiple devices together using a single port on the computer. For example, you would plug the keyboard into the computer, and then plug your mouse directly into the extra port on the side of the keyboard.
