Greetings netland! I have a problem, and I hope some kindly hacker out there could help me. I recently aquired a used Amiga 1000, and as you can probably guess, no keyboard. But I bought an interesting little device which allows me to use a 2000 keyboard. But, the 2000 keyboard costs more than I paid for the computer, and so I'd like to use an IBM keyboard, since the connector appears to be pin compatible. I'd like to know if an IBM keyboard could be attached to this, and if not, if there are there any hardware/software hacks which I could use to do this. I heard that the Amiga 2000 keyboard has its' own chips to encode information. Thanks in advance. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_] [_] _ _ _ _ [_] [_] //// AT&T (6 17 ) 375 8013 Only \\\\ [_] [_] //// / || |\\ /|| | / / || Amiga \\\\ [_] [_] _ _ //// INTNET f bue ll er @ b ucsf .bu.edu Makes \\\\ _ _ [_] [_] \\\X/// / || | \\ / || | \\ || / || It \\\X/// [_] [_] \XXX/ BIT NET c l xb x ac@ BUA CCA Possible \XXX/ [_] [_] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ [_] [_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_][_]
