If it looked like the market might support 5K + keyboards in the near future, I could probably generate enough interest at work to get a new keyboard out for the Amiga. If you'd be interested in one, drop me an email. If you'd like to offer suggestions as to what might be nice/neat/dumb/etc in a new keyboard, I'd like to see that info also. If there's much response I'll summarize and re-post. -- |---------------------------------------------------------------| | // Wayne D.
