== Integrated Amiga keyboards == These are inside the computer's case above the logic-board. Where as most external Amiga keyboards have tactile feel, most integrated Amiga keyboards have linear feel. [[Commodore Amiga 500|Amiga 500]] keyboards have Power and FDD activity LEDs on a circuit board together with the keyboard controller in the keyboard assembly. Inside the Amiga 600 and 1200, the controller is instead on the main logic-board and Power, FDD and HD activity LEDs are on a separate board. === Amiga 500 (+) === {{Main|Commodore Amiga 500}} [[File:A500-full-keyboard.jpg|thumb|250px|Early Amiga 500 keyboard]] Like the Amiga 2000, the Amiga 500 has also come in multiple revisions. [[Early Amiga 500 keyboards|Early models]] have [[Hi-Tek Series 725]] "Space Invader" switches like the Amiga 2000 keyboard.<ref>Amibay β [http://www.amibay.com/showthread.php?46689-Help-Key-and-white-quot-space-invaders-quot-switch Help Key and white "space invaders" switch]</ref> Most Amiga 500s have linear [[Mitsumi KPR Type|KPR]] type [[Mitsumi hybrid switch]]es with coiled springs under the keycaps. === Amiga 1200 === {{Main|Commodore Amiga 1200}} Linear [[Mitsumi KPR Type|KPR]] type [[Mitsumi hybrid switch]]es with coiled springs under the keycaps. The membrane extends as a ribbon cable to a connector on the main logic board where the controller is located. === Amiga 600 === {{Main|Commodore Amiga 600}} More compact layout that omitted the numeric keypad. The cursor keys and the '''Help''' and '''Del''' keys have moved left and the '''Esc''' key is 1.25 units wide. Most Amiga 600 are believed to have [[Mitsumi hybrid switch]]es.
