If anybody want to replace >the shift register chip and give the AT a go... more power to ya! >(the chip is the one beside the keyboard connector.) If I remember right, the MM/1 has no shift register at all in the Xmit direction, so cannot send to the keyboard at all. This is main diff between XT and AT systems. Sooo, hackers may have more work than you think. Correct me if wrong (need I ask :-) -- mike k
