Hi Joe,
Version 1 I think has to have a serial I/O connection on the Terminal/Keyboard PCB which would make it more versatile.  It would then be able to be connected to say the Coco's Serial I/O port under NitrOS-9 as a dumb terminal which of course it really is plus it would be useful for any other SBCs with a serial I/O RS-232 port.  Cool huh!
The Terminal/Keyboard PCB can also be adapted to the Kipper Bus with the addition of an MC68B50 ACIA chip, the MAX232 chip and DB9 9-pin female connector.  It could be the very first Kipper Bus Add-On Card.  Neat'O, huh!
These are my current thoughts.  What do you think?

Yay, the serial interface is back! I guess this means you've opted to design a display/keyboard interface board for the folks who wanted it? If so, did you decide on just making it a serial connection or a Kipper Bus customer?
