The PIII will
emulate the keyboard layout of a VT220 if you use an LK461
keyboard.
What makes the LK461 special?

I'm curious as a bunch came into a surplus place, and one of the other
junkies grabbed them all, but had no interest in the LK401.
The LK461 has a PS/2 connector. The LK401 has a phone-jack connector. The
LK401 can only be used with a VT2x0/VT3x0/VT4x0 terminal.

The LK461 (and related keyboards, like the LK46W) have the same layout as the
LK401, including all the keys. I use a couple on my Alphas and VT525. Eric Dittman

Well, that's not entirely accurate. There are a wide variety of DEC
machines that can use an LK401.
