One-off Etsy design of a USB keyboard in a ZX Spectrum housing. Its almost as expensive as the original ZX Spectrum. Part of me hopes that the guts of the Spectrum donated for this project are being hardwired into an Apple Bluetooth keyboard to make a futuristic iSpectrum.
Travel back to the 1980’s with this original Sinclair ZX Spectrum converted to work as a fully functional USB keyboard. Inside, there’s a controller board running my custom software which transforms the Spectrum’s keyboard into a USB keyboard. This will work anywhere a normal USB keyboard would, most laptop and desktop PCs, and some tablets. No software is required to run on the PC end, just plug in and go.
