Title: Wyse keyboards
Post by: gilgam on Mon, 23 January 2012, 07:59:09

Hello

i  can see some wyse keyboards for sale but i don't know if they all are terminal , and if they all have double shots keycaps.
If they are terminal, is it easyto mod them too use on a regular PC ?
Thanks

I made a post somewhere on here about that , and I believe it was suggested to me that you would need to get a new controller board and install a ps2/usb adapter. If you look in the keycaps wiki under the Wyse60 It may link to that very post.  It was wayy too involved for my liking.

It's a very nice mod, i won't be as good as you are modding and wiring all these cables...
