Replacement and enhanced keyboards for Commodore machines

CBM MX Keyboards Project Steve J. Gray ========================

This is a project to create replacement keyboards for CBM Machines using standard MX keyswitches. The first goal is to create direct replacements that fit standard CBM cases (if possible).

Keyboards are identified by a string in the following format:

where: KB is the keyboard name Vn is the version#. This is a unique design/layout of a specific keyboard. Rn is the revision#. Generally updates to a specific keyboard version.
