The Kaypro uses a serial port rather than a parallel port to connect the keyboard. What needs to be done to change the way the keyboard is decoded before it goes to the computer? Would it be a matter of a neew ROM somewhere? Can you buy a serial Dvorak keyboard somewhere that would work on the Kaypro? Any help or Info would be greatly appreciated.
