The KeyWiz Eco wouldn't have been too bad, the MAME default codeset is all I ever use, and you can configure MAME to whatever you need it to be.

The MiniPac will be better for other apps, and I think you mentioned some optical interfaces, so that makes sense.

rdagger:
You could have used 4 opto-coupler chips to connect Druin's interface to a keyboard hack.  If you have any old slow modems, you can usually pull a few opto-couplers from them.

The rat's nest of resoldered hacked peices and strewn 25 pair cable days are numbered, besides, I've already capitulated to spending $82 on a neat and tidy MiniPac :)

At least I didn't blow all of my allowance and hard earned money into these quarter eating monsters.  I already did that 25 years ago.
