[comp.sys.amiga] Replacement Keyboards

monty@sagpd1.UUCP (Monty Saine) (04/27/89)

Hello world,

     I have been playing with an idea in the back of my mind for a few months
now and I would like the opinions of others on the practability/usability
of it.
     If one could plug an IB* generic keyboard into an adapter box and thus into
our Ami's. which keys would be best programmed to be the Amiga Keys? I realize
there are other differences. but this one seems to be the biggest stumbling 
block to such a project. I originally wanted to do something like this with
the Wyse keyboard I use daily at work for the consistancy of feel. I have 
checked and the hardware part is not that difficult to impliment.
     Give me your opinions on key placement and or types of "generic" keyboards
that should/could be supported.

Thanks in advance,

Monty
