 <p>Original Atari keyboards are getting rare and expensive. The Eiffel is a cheap, modern alternative that brings a standard PS/2 keyboard and mouse to the machine, along with the two joystick ports the original keyboard had. It also gives a much better typing feel: I use a Cherry PS/2 keyboard, which is far more pleasant to type on than the original, and a Logitech PS/2 mouse that tracks noticeably better than the original Atari STM1 mouse. It makes the workstation far more practical to use day to day. The older Eiffel versions were originally built and sold by Lyndon Amsdon, with the design documented on the <a href="https://hardware.atari.org/eiffel/index.htm" target="_blank">Atari Hardware Guide</a>, and the project history is covered in the <a href="https://wiki.newtosworld.de/index.php?title=Eiffel_Interface" target="_blank">Atari Wiki</a>.</p>

 <h2>My Setup</h2>
-<p>In my Mega ST 4 "High" machine the Eiffel connects the PS/2 keyboard and mouse, keeping the workstation fully usable alongside the <a href="/retro/monsterboard/">MonSTerBoard</a>, <a href="/retro/et4000-experiment/">ET4000</a> and <a href="/retro/netusb/">NetUSBee</a>. The original Atari keyboard and mouse are now used with the "Low" machine.</p>
