It will support PS/2 keyboards and VGA. Intended to be a learning platform for RISC-V coding, it's only got 2k of RAM. (I tried finding a 3rd party source for this announcement but I struck out, so I'm linking the actual olimex webpage. Not affiliated with them, just thought this looked neat.)

And an emulator doesn't require you to find a PS/2 keyboard.

You mean the agony of deciding which one to dig out of my bin of PS/2 keyboards?

I'm not going to say I definitely don't have a PS/2 keyboard somewhere in the basement, but that box got thrown away at least a decade ago.

Nope! Didn't even have to go out of my way. Turned up while I was looking for something else.
