I guess normally one might attach a USB > keyboard, and the VHDL would emulate a keyboard matrix. I already put in a request to add some extra io pins for the c128 keyboard. He didn't say no. The external keyboard on the C128d is just an extension of the internal pin header, I suspect the others are as well. That and the mechanical issues of fitting the motherboard into a different case are things that can be done at your own pace once you can buy one. > > For covering the PET or PET-2 features, another nice-to-have would be > an IEEE-488 interface.

There is a user port internally and you have the cartridge port, you should be able to add a C64 IEEE-488 interface (or build something similar) and hook it up to the pet2 emulation.Received on 2018-03-15 12:04:10
