Commodore Amiga 1000

Had "garage" for keyboard.


Keyboard port (RJ10);


From article on RJ10:

The Macintosh 128K, Macintosh 512K and Macintosh Plus from Apple as well
as the Amiga 1000 from Commodore used 4P4C connectors to connect the
keyboard to the main computer housing. The connector provided power to
the keyboard on the outer two contacts and received data signals on the
inner pair. The cable between the computer and the keyboard was a coiled
cord with an appearance very similar to a telephone handset cable.[11]
The connector on the Amiga 1000 used crossover wiring, similar to a
telephone handset. The connector wiring on the Apple computers, however,
required a polarized straight-through pinout. Using a telephone handset
cable instead of the supplied cable could short out the +5 volt DC
supply and damage the Apple computer or the keyboard.[12]
