I was going to run my beer fridge off my II+ (with some software and
hardware add-ons to make it into a programmable temperature controller), but
the keyboard started flaking out. I swapped in a IIe as a replacement, but
a gadget like what you describe would let me put the II+ back in service
without having to track down a replacement keyboard (or trying to fix the
one I have, since those attempts have been less than successful). Do you
plan on making this available in some form (plans, kit, and/or assembled)?
