Please don't fall into the pitfall believing COTS USB / PS-2
converters will cope with the "extra keys" of a DEC keyboard. If
your computer has USB only for keyboard - go for a true USB
LK-keyboard.<br>
<br>
I even tested a PCI card with PS-2 connectors. It showed up to
actually be an USB PCI adaptor combined with a USB - PS-2 simple
cheapo...<br>
<br>
Please be aware that even if your current computer has PS-2, that
might not be the case with your next computer...<br>
<br>
And I agree totally, PC-keyboards really sucks if you want to
operate for example the EDT-editor...<br>
<br>
Besides, my fingers like the style and shape of true LK's before
flat PC-keyboards...<br>
<br>
Best regards,<br>

type="cite">Hello, I'm running OpenVMS 7.3 on a SimH/VAX. The PC
keyboard is suboptimal (annoying), as several keys are missing and
the NumLock light goes on and off when I press the key in the PF1
position.<br>
<br>
So, I wanted to ask if anyone has gotten a particular DEC, Compaq,
HP, or Cherry keyboard to work with a PC running SimH? <br>
<br>
Over on comp.os.vms I heard that the LK463/LK464 (USB with PS/2
dongle) work. I'm in the market for one of those.<br>
<br>
I received another report that the LK465 and the LK41R (PS/2 only)
will also work. Wondering what keyboards folks here are using. Do
you all just limp along with the commodity PC keyboard?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Nathan<br>
