I'm not sure it's fair to describe the membrane thing on the 400 as a keyboard. I typed in everything in the Basic manual, and thinking about it now makes my hands ache.

Yes. I got a real keyboard for mine back in the day.

Today I have one. It has one purpose: run "Star Raiders."

I love that game. And the 400 looks seriously cool. Never fails to get some attention running that game.

Then people experience the feel of that cool looking keyboard... oh well. It is fine for the game.
