Interesting!  For quite a while I've been thinking about repackaging my 1040.
How did you handle the keyboard?  My understanding of the keyboard is that it
is connected via a serial link.  

I'd like to put the whole business into a vertically mounted pc case and be
rid of the mass of cables, switch boxes, drives, etc.  

Has anyone done this already?

Will a Mega keyboard work with the 1040?

Anyone attempted hooking up an enhanced pc keyboard (or other variety)?

Regards,

Bob
