Indulging myself with a C128D

A while ago I bought a pretty cheap C128D keyboard on Ebay.  I have been using it a lot with my MiSTer using an Arduino as a USB HID interface.  The recently I got an Amiga 2000 keyboard to build a new interface for my MiSTer ** so the C128D keyboard was about to become surplus to requirements.

There is something about the C128D that I really liked so I picked up a working one all the way from Germany.  I'm really happy to say that it arrived safely and it works beautifully.  I am going to set this up with my 1084 monitor as my center piece for my Commodore retro collection.


It's so pretty!

** If you haven't seen the MiSTer project, you are missing out.  It is an Open Source project with a FPGA the runs a huge amount of retro computers, console and arcades.  I've been using it since it was first released, having been a Mist user previously.
