And remember, if you go to the INT 09 level then you need to be careful 
about which set of scan codes a machine recognizes.  Older iron (what I 
specialize in) won't see or understand the newer keys on the extended 
keyboards.

(The PCjr gets around this by mapping the scan codes from its unique 
keyboard to standard PC and XT scan codes before invoking INT 09.
