You guys probably already know this, but I just found it. It still won't work on USB, but you can use it on a PS/2 port.

I actually didn't know this. Neat idea but if I am going to convert anything I like it to work on USB if I am going to go through the trouble.
Still a cool concept. Probably best way to convert an F122 if you want to keep most of it original without adapters.

That is interesting would be a cool project however with how cheap micros are nowadays its a fun project rather than a practical method to convert .
I do have an F122 with its original controller , i may give it a go

I've always had this idea of taking my Apple M0116 and converting it to USB without either an ADB converter nor Teensy 2.0. The idea is to find some cheapo rubberdome board that you don't like, rewire all of the switches to match the membrane's wiring, then install the cheapo keyboard controller. The mod is dirt cheap. Sure, it's probably going to be locked at 2KRO, but I never tell a difference anyways.
