How much did it cost you in the end - you said £75 in an earlier post, is it still that price?

When it comes to making the QL a USB keyboard for another computer, how much of the original QL is required? Would just the keyboard be enough or does it need the motherboard as well?

(Hope Rich has enough QLs in stock for people embarking on this project)

£65 with two orders but would be cheaper in batches etc.

All that's need is the tails from the keyboard membrane and the power led :)

I bought two scrapyard QL's a while back and a spare case top too, so I thought it would be a nice project with the bits I had :)
