I have been using the PS2 interface on my Mega 4 for mouse and keyboard. I bought a used small 520 case and keyboard from B&C. Also the Mega keyboard mouse board. Put it together and created my own external keyboard for my Mega using Atari parts.

So far working well. After a few hours my 30 year old Mega keyboard cable began to fall apart from actually being used. Need to get a new cord today.

That is interesting, so the original Mega internal PCB took the keyboard connector of the original short-ST. I never noticed this before.
