Is it possible to provide independent use of AmigaDOS and the Bridgeboard
at the same time ?  The Bridgeboard can have its own disk, mouse, and monitor,
but how about ITS OWN KEYBOARD ?  How can I plug a PC keyboard directly
into a Bridgeboard or Sidecar ?  I see a few unknown connector pins
on the A2088 near the center and on the Sidecar in the right front bottom.

The users group wants 2 people to be able to type at the same time:
one using AmigaDOS and one running MS-DOS on the same Amiga 2000/A2088.
Perhaps I could use a remote control program from a PC serial port
or netkeys, but that requires a whole terminal.  Any ideas ?     ....BJ
