AH HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!" Interesting! For quite a while I've been thinking about repackaging my 1040. How did you handle the keyboard? My understanding of the keyboard is that it is connected via a serial link. I'd like to put the whole business into a vertically mounted pc case and be rid of the mass of cables, switch boxes, drives, etc. Has anyone done this already? Will a Mega keyboard work with the 1040? Anyone attempted hooking up an enhanced pc keyboard (or other variety)? Regards, Bob Robert M.
