- My last posting got a little messed up, so I will try
- this again. Does anyone know of a way to connect an IBM style
- keyboard to an Atari ST via a D.I.Y. circuit that does not use
- the MIDI ports, or the serial port? I have a newer ST which
- has the mouse/joy ports built onto the back of the keyboard, so
- these would have to be transplanted too. Is there any info on
- intelligent keyboard interface itself? Maybe a way to transfer
- that to an IBM?
- My main angle here is to put my 520 STfm into a tower
- case so as to save desk space and add modularity to my system.
- I know that others have done this, so... If you're out there,
- please give me any suggestions that you may have.

- Thanks,
