The 1968 chorded keyset-revived


Preserving the past to preserve the future

What a perfect day…Rob Stephenson (curator at The Tech Museum) and I met at the Ferry building in SF. While sitting by the dock of the Bay, Rob showed me the new adapter he built for chorded keyset Doug Engelbart gave me to play with.  Now Engelbart’s keysets from the 1960-70 work with any computer via USB.
