Amiga Emulating Setup

[numatic]

Hi,

So I thought I was all setup and ready to go, up until I got to the configuration when I realised, I’m going to need a keyboard.

Much to my surprise, my PC keyboard is actually PS/2 port! I don’t own a USB keyboard.

Cheapest solution was to help myself to a PS/2 to USB converter from work, but I’ll be swapping over from PC to RPI. So I want to buy a USB keyboard.

As silly as this sounds, I don’t know what to get. I want a slim keyboard so it can easily transported. I found a slim Xenta wireless keyboard/mouse for a good price, but I haven’t done enough research to know if it is compatible.

Next I come across this, http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/2-4G-Wireless-QWERTY-Media-Keyboard-Touchpad-Mouse-Combo-For-PC-Raspberry-PI-/281690984379

But if I want to use it for Amiga emulation, I don’t think it’ll be suitable.

Any recommended setups for Amiga emulation? Any known compatibility issues with wireless keyboard/mouse combos? Is the touchpad/keyboard combo any good?

Thanks
Tom

The one you listed is a complete rip off of something like this one :-

This one also has all the function keys F1-F12 (not sure if the one you listed has them). Good for portability but I would recommend a full keyboard layout for computer emulators.
