I forgot to clarify - I'm thinking about getting a old MAC keyboard which has loads
of extra buttons that I'm sure the OS will pass through..

I think I can remap the keys to send pretty much any escape code in Terminal.app.
So as long as I have enough physical keys, I can 'emulate' an LK-style keyboar
(Gold keys, PF1-4 etc).

To do what? The OS won't support the keys and as a result a terminal from the host OS
won't either. I am not 100% sure how SimH accesses the keyboard input and haven't
tested a USB VMS keyboard with it. I fear the host OS won't map the keys forward?
FWIW my AB552A is USB with a PS/2 adapter.

My idea is to plug one of these into a Macbook Pro with a USB adapter, failing that, could
I just get a 100+ key USB keyboard, do some tweaking and relabel the buttons?

Might be worth to get one if you can manage to find one (for a reasonable price).
HP's price is very high. Don't know if they still deliver them.
I've tried to use the PS2-style LK keyboards connected through a PS2 - USB dongle with
my zx6000 with no luck.
