Joel, is that using Write-Right(tm), or is C & P built into
the latest KWindows?  I hear lots of rumors about stuff, like
resizing and moving windows and such, but I doubt my version
supports C&P (my Maryland relatives remember when C&P was a RR :-).
I have edition 48 I think.

Uh-oh, we shuda known this would happen -- the PC-XT is probably
now so "obsolete" that nobody wants to support it with keyboards
anymore.  Go to a PC swap meet and load up on old keyboards.

to your local target range.

Seriously, I hope the MM/2 piggybacks onto more up-to-date
PC technology.  And can deal with non-Logitech mice.
