Someone at today's GLLUG meeting mentioned having an Ultra-5 sitting
around.  If those take the same type of keyboard, you might be able to
borrow it for a bit.  I'll leave it to that individual to speak up if
willing though, so please don't ask me for the name.  Once you get the
system booting, I can't imagine you would have much trouble getting a
USB card working (assuming it's PCI?).
