Title: Keyboards with built in trackpads
Post by: DrFrag on June 24, 2007, 04:13:04 am

A lot of MAME cabinet pictures I see have keyboards inside on a tray with a mouse.

Yesterday I saw a server rack keyboard like this

(bottom of the page) and thought it would make a great alternative.  They have two PS2 cables coming out the back.  The the keyboard could be attached to a tray or strapped to a hinged panel and nothing would be loose inside the cabinet.

I don't think they're very cheap so I can't see myself getting one, but I thought people here might be interested.  :)

You can pick them up for $20-30 shipped on Ebay, just search for "Server keyboard".
