Hi Folks,
Due to a forced move I lost much of my Amiga gear. I need new KB's for my A2000 & A4000T. I found a nice Cherry KB W/104 Keys for a PC. Question is I can't remember If I can Make the Windows keys Amiga keys or not, is that possible?

The Amiga Keyboard situation is ridiculous.

I agree. Even a USB Amiga keyboard has yet to be invented. All we've seen is expensive knock offs and Kickstarters using a PC board as a base and don't even have an Amiga key layout! How hard can this be? I don't know how the price can bloat when it uses a PC keyboard and isn't built from the ground up.
What they need to do is use a Mac keyboard as a reference board. It's closer matched to the Amiga layout. And the end result is going to be expensive anyway. Of course, what's really needed is a cheap way of printing keys and/or keycaps. And then they need to modify the firmware to produce the correct codes.
And this isnt even a real modern Amiga keyboard that can plug into an Amiga yet!
