Q: Changing keyboards?

I've got a DEC 5000/300, and I want to change the keyboard on it.
At the moment I'm using the "standard" keyboard, that was shipped
with the system, the $5 keyboard, anyway because of it, and
because I type too much I'm begining to develop what feels like
tendonitis (ie repeditive someting desease). I only say this
because next to the alpha, on the same desk, I have a SGI with a
"tactile" feel keyboard, and it's 100 times easier to type on it,
not to mention I can type faster.

My question is: Is it possible to hook up a standard IBM keybard
and how. Or if not, who else sels keyboards for the DEC. at this
point I'm quite desperate, and any suggestions would be welcomed.

Does anyone have the pinout for the keyboard. I've noticed that
it's 4 wire , but the manual mentions nothing of it.

Thanks
