I have used a separate keyboard on my ][+ for a few years now, and
contrary to other people have had no trouble at all.  The keyboard
is basically a Taiwanese clone keyboard (clone of ][+) in its own
separate case connected by about 2m of screened 15 core cable to a
real ][+.  The one improvement that I did make to the keyboard was
to remove its encoding board and replace it with a Videx Enhancer,
as you can imagine this was not at all straightforward, as the whole
thing had to be wire-wrapped, but the result is just as reliable, despite
the miles of wiring.

All that I can suggest is that you try it, hopefully you will have results
similar to mine!  The improvement in reduction of eye-strain & bad backs
(from leaning over the keyboard) will be worth the effort, honest!
