Title: Amiga 2000 Keyboard with RED Amiga Keys
Post by: barney on June 27, 2008, 07:58:57 PM
Hey everybody, I have a question maybe you might have an answer to.  I just recently purchased a new keyboard for my Amiga 2000.  Rather than the standard keyboard, this one is very similar to the Amiga 1000 keyboard.  It has a different LED on the "cap locks" key and the Amiga keys are "red".  I heard that this is rare, is that true.  Thanks.

Barney

Yeah, I am pretty happy about this keyboard.  Does anybody know what these keyboards are going for on the market?

Doomy thinks they're worth more than $1000 :crazy:

I can't imagine they're worth much more than the more common keyboards. Maybe even less - I don't care for the aesthetics of it, so I'd only have a hypothetical interest in the event of an absolutely critical keyboard shortage.

Just my own 2cents, I prefer a state of the art pc keyboard adapter to connect a wireless keyboard together with a wireless pc mouse  :lol:
