Can I install a PCI video card (frame buffer) in my AC200 and use a
USB keyboard? How would I determine which PCI cards would work?
Can a keyboard be directly connected to a T100 or 105?

According to
http://sunsolve.sun.com/handbook_pub/Systems/Netra_T1_AC200_shared/spec.html

you should be able to: the machine already has USB ports and you have
one PCI slot.
Now the question is to find a suitable PCI video card.

Nah; the real question is why would one want to do that with a
Netra in the first place?!

Thanks, but what about the 105 which doesn't have USB?

The 105 has no keyboard; the only way you'll be able to attach
one is to install a USB PCI card.

But I have to ask: why on earth do you want to do this? You
could log in over the network, or use a serial console.
