Vintage computer help!?
Ok, so I own a 1983 Compaq Portable computer. This computer is beautiful (and only a true geek can appreciate that)! My problem i believe the entire motherboard has failed and what I would like to do is disconnect the motherboard and install my own. I've already tested using my own mother board and the built in display screen works fine with it. My real question is the keyboard. I would like to use the original keyboard. How can I do this? How is the keyboard connected? How can I connect it to a new motherboard? Etc; etc
Get back to me ASAP!!! Thanks!
Maybe need to go somewhere more truly geeky than here for help. I am a member of http://www.thebestcasescenario.com/ - a community of computer modders.
This is the sot of thing guys on there can help you with almost certainly if you do not get a good answer on here. We have people putting computers in toasters and all sorts. It may be time to fully embrace geekdom

If you've ever had a problem telling the time, then don't worried any more. The Binary Watch is so completely impossible to use (unless you're a code-head) that not being able to tell the time is no longer a cause for worry, but just perfectly normal behavior. This watch displays time in binary format. (Now there was a useful sentence.) I want to tell you what is the binary format watch. Binary watch (ledwatcheshome.com/category-8-b0.html) have certainly become very popular with gadget geeks and computer boffins - but they're starting to have more mainstream appeal with people who want to tell the time in a new and fashion way, and with those who want to make a fashion statement and keep ahead of the time.But what is a binary watch exactly and how does it differ from the traditional way? Just to proven analogue watch that's been around for ages? No, a binary watch uses binary code to display the time - which means a combination of zeros. Using blue LED lights to indicate hours and minutes,the LED "ON" means 1, and the LED "OFF" means 0. The first row denotes the hours and the second row indicates the minutes, and apparently the translation of time from binary to decimal is easy: simply (huh) add the numbers of lit LEDs on the upper row to tell hours, and add up the numbers of lit LEDs on the lower row to tell minutes. The upper LED-row (8-4-2-1) shows hours. The lower LED-row (32-16-8-4-2-1) shows minutes. The time is displayed for five seconds when the side button is pushed - but if you think that's long enough to work it out then you're considerably cleverer than we are. Maybe at this time, you can not full understand what is it. But the important way that you must be understand that Digital Led Watches (ledwatcheshome.com/category-21-b0.html) is used to make sure that you can read the time with yourself.
As the classic joke goes, 'there are only 10 types of people in the world - those who understand binary, and those who don't' and it doesn't matter if you're a 1 or a 0, it's a unique if slightly daft gizmo whichever way you look at it. It comes with a leather strap, is made from solid stainless steel, and is water resistant to 90 feet - just in case you wanted to show off your binary proficiency to a fish.
