[Coco] My CoCo 2 is not working right...

[Al Hartman]

That's what I was thinking. I have been trying to find a company that makes 
bare keyboards, without encoder chips, or even a circuit board if possible.

The Mark Data keyboard was a Dragon keyboard adapted to the CoCo.

I sometimes wonder if there's not a warehouse (or two or three) out there 
full of leftover spare parts keyboards from the CoCo 2, the Dragon, or the 
never produced Deluxe CoCo (that Radio Shack sold as a wall part, and my 
CoCo 2 seems to have.) I bet there are still a few sitting on hooks at some 
out of the way Radio Shack store out there.

Back in "the day" I bought a keyboard, unsoldered the circuit board and
wired the CoCo matrix to it.  I wore it out, bought another and did it
again.  The problem is finding keyboards with discrete key/switches.  A CoCo
layout would be nice though.
