[Fourlanders] Misc from contest, etc.

[Rogers, Ron]

Thanks Bill,

Two key features attractive to number of us about the uniqueness of
Tom's mini-keyboard was (1) PS2 interface, and (2) the reverse "L" key
for Enter to the extreme right. That reverse "L", double row, verses
single row, "Enter" key is a rarity on most mini-keyboards and tends to
be easier to use for contest environment.
