Re: A2e newbie - Keyboard issue

Hi, I too bought a German IIe. It wasn't enhanced.

The keyboard could be switched between German and US layout with a switch under the front. I don't think there was anything special about the keyboard it connected directly to the motherboard. The keyboard ROM is a ROM.

The switch, IIRC, was actually connected to the high address bit of the char ROM, so in an euro Apple, the ROM is actually two banks, one with the standard charset and the other with the local charset...
