Anyone knows if a keyboard that is from an old commodore pc is a standard keyboard that would work with any standard pc that has din connector for a keyboard? I don't know which commodore pc model it is from because the keyboard itself just says commodore and it seems to have din connector.

I know that the Commodore keyboard with built-in speakers was a regular AT keyboard. As for others, probably the same, but - lacking a model number - a pic of the board might help.

PC10-III/PC20-III (aka Colt) uses regulat XT keyboard. Works fine with all XT keyboards I have. I'm pretty sure same applies to PC10 and PC10-II.

Someone who I know has the keyboard and he can't get it to work properly, so I am basically trying to find out if it is broken or if it is a compatibility issue. The sticker at the bottom is missing so he doesn't know the model number. It looks like a standard keyboard layout with function keys at the top and commodore logo below the caps lock, scroll lock and num lock lights.
