#4: what kind of keyboard for NeXTstation?

[George Fowler]

NeXT posting 4

Greetings!

I acquired a bunch of old NeXT equipment (see NeXT posting #1 for list),
including two NeXTstation units. I hope to get one or both of them
working. However, there is only one keyboard. Can anyone tell me what kind
of keyboard I can buy as a substitute if both units turn out to be usable?
The connector looks pretty familiar, maybe some standard in the PC world?
(I'm strictly a Mac person.)

Thanks!

If they're non-ADB (and by the sounds of it you'd recognise an ADB port)
then the only thing that will work is a NeXT keyboard.
