I always wondered about this because I could swear that I saw at least one
XT Model M in the day...
Does anyone know if you can identify a switchable Model M from the keyboard
cable being terminated into a modular type jack on the keyboard side? Or
was going from the modular jack to a hard-wired PS/2 cord just a cost
reduction at some point in time after the keyboard was introduced?
Best,
Sean
I have a model M with the XT style connector. However, it's for either an
AT or
XT/286 (I have the later). The cable is all that is different (same
modular jack on the
keyboard side) I haven't tried it on a PC, but from what I know it
shouldn't work.
