RE: Small ps2 keyboard

["Mick Furlong" <hiltoneltd@xxxxxxx>]

You could try and find an old compaq luggable (like a laptop but more the size of a suitcase for you youngsters ;)...they had small keyboards which could be lifted out of the main unit and used as a stand alone keyboard....internally they are connected to the PC via a standard PS2 connector.

 

Mine came from what I think was a compaq SLT 286 and is the handiest thing as it works well with the fujis and with my subnotebook (much more confortable than the inbuilt one for lots of typing).

 

You might find one in a computer graveyard somewhere if so I can highly recommend them.

 

Size is 13.5 inch by 6.5 inch by .5 inch (+ the keys) and it has dinky little legs to give the keys an angled rake.

Id seen the happy hacker ones but when you can buy new standard keyboards
for 1.99 trade paying $139 gives me the heebie geebies. Having just bought a
flower cooler at 10 times the price of a normal one as well I'm beginnig to
loose it..

Yup, you can get them, Li had some at one point...fair warning though,
they sure were not under £20! Try about £80!!!
