Title: Amiga like keyboard on PC question?
Post by: ricco32097 on March 17, 2006, 01:40:58 PM

Does anyone know if there is a PC keyboard available where the CAPS LOCK key has a LED built in like the ol' Amiga?

I saw this one for the MAC

I just wish there was a system patch to make Windows usage of the left & right Windows keys to act like the left and right Amiga keys. Left for system functions and right for application.

Hi,

I don't know about that, but there's a way to plug an Amiga keyboard into a PC using a Katweasel MK4 (PCI). The product's description on Amigakit.com states that this device allows for the use of "a real Amiga keyboard on a PC". I've not used this device yet, but I purchased one which should arrive soon. I'll know more once I plug it in...
