With all this talk about making a LK201 work on a PC or vice versa - and
this moderately-broken Amiga keyboard I have laying around - I was
wondering if anyone could give me some info so I design/build an adaptor
to make a PC (perhaps mac or some other KB) work with an Amiga? With the
lack of a surplus of Amiga kb's on the eBay market, I was thinking it
might be a worthwhile hack.
Mostly I guess I just want a source of info about the Amiga keyboard (this
is for an A2000 btw) so I could think about how I might design it.
Thanks

I remember back in the day this was a relatively popular hack, but
it required a converter box since the electronics in an Amiga
keyboard aren't the same as those of a PC. I think a couple of the
Amiga magazines had articles on how to do it, and there were a
couple of commercial adapter boxes available.
