I'm gonna design a split keyboard where the halves connect using SCSI, using 68-pin centronics connectors.

This is just to restore balance, given all these mechanical keyboard nerds with the quick release aviation cables

@foone go for differential SCSI instead of single ended. For those situations where both halves of the keyboard need up to 25 meters of separation.

@foone make sure to properly terminate the SCSI bus on both ends...

@foone i like it!
How about IEC 13 power cables as interlink?

Hard mode: that's also how it connects to the PC. It's a SCSI keyboard

@foone Do we also get a SCSI mouse? 🙃

(Bonus thought: SCSI flash drives, looks just like a terminator!)

@foone I still have the cables, not sure if the pci scsi interface will still work. Perhaps under the Debian? Please let me know once the prototype becomes available, wish to test the thing :D
