[Line eater? What line ea

     Some friends of mine have just been basically given an A1000 (the
person traded it up for a 2500) and now need either:

     1) An A1000 keyboard which is working OR can be made to work (he's
not afraid of a soldiering iron)
     2) Instructions for using an A2000 keyboard with an A1000; I've heard
such a hack exists.
     3) Interfacing ideas for hooking a PC Clone keyboard to an A1000.
     4) (Goofy idea I thought of): is there a way to redirect standard keyboard
input to the serial port? I have a dumb (read -very- dumb) terminal that they
could use if such code exists or can be written.
     Email some replies to me; they have no network access. Or, if you have
something they could buy, telephone them at 606/293-5795 (voice) or
606/293-2309 (3/1200 baud). Ask for Rickey or Tracy.
                                                       - R'ykandar.
