I after years of lurking in various mech online communities, I decided to finally get into the scene. I just couldn't resist anymore. I plan to build my own custom board at some point as I am still learning methodologies and what parts to get. I ordered a switch tester and it's still en route, so while waiting I acquired an AEKII to play with. I followed Hasu's tutorial to build an ADB-USB converter and was able to get it working within a couple hours. I'm happy as a clam!
I have questions about this keyboard so I'll post them in the appropriate forums. Anyway, looking forward to learning from your guys!
