I need to use an Apple //e in a situation in which water might reach the'
keyboard. It's powered thru an isolation transformer and a ground fault
isolator, but the whole //e is put at risk by its necessary location. At
the very least, I would like to use an external keyboard, so that
nothing but the keyboard (not minor but less that the whole computer) would
be endangered. Even better, I would like to use a water-resistant (not
necessarily immersible) keyboard. The plastic keyboard covers that I have
seen for //e and //c are very difficult to type thru (unlike the excellent
ones available for IBM AT), but a well-designed type-on soft plastic cover
would also be of interest.
