General Mach Discussion / Re: Three LPT Ports

OK. So a third LPT port is not an option...
This leaves me with either Modbus or a keyboard emulation device such as Pokeys55. For me, I think the Pokeys55 will be quick, simple and cheap to use with my TTL pendant from Keling inc.. So the question I have before getting out the credit card is "will pokeys coexist with a keyboard"? Mach3 being a windows app, it's difficult to drive long term without a standard keyboard.
Thanks, Andy K
