Okay, since everyone is asking, I would like a new A4000T keyboard.

We'll have a little keyboard pledge soon  ;)


Me too. Actually, it's the same as an A4000 one ... except with an adaptor.

I want one with a US layout in Aust.

I'm not sure what would happen if you tried to plug in a standard PS2 (Non-Amiga) keyboard. I wouldn't try it without checking further first. I am almost sure that at the very least it won't work.

Don't do it, it doesn't work.

There is a quite different pin-out for each connector.

I have at this point in time nine computers. What's wrong with me?? Six are Amigas, though and that's good. I just set up my little render farm-to-be and started plugging in keyboards, monitors etc and all the Amigas work. Re the keyboard thing, why not use the Lyra adapter and any PC keyboard. Or, did you know that the A2000 keyboard will work on the A4000T? I have three A2000's and one A4000T so as I was moving things around I discovered that I had plugged in the A2000 keyboard into the tower. Seems to work just fine. That might make it easier to get your keyboard. Good luck.
That's strange. I think I tried plugging my A4000T KB into my A2000, but it didn't work.

I thought they had different pin layouts. Or could that just be with the old German A2000's?

I think you are wrong.

The A4000T has a 5 pin DIN plug.

Same physical connector, I think the pinout is different.
