How odd. She's typing on a Commodore 128 in front of an Amiga 1000. Did they lose the Amiga keyboard or something?

He is using Commodore 128 as some kind of terminal AND Amiga 1000.

That is a Commodore C128 plus the Amiga 1000 main computer. But they do not work together like that. Where the monitor.

It is an amiga 1000 core with a c128 casing and keyboard. The c128 has been stripped out and in place of the mainboard is a port extender pcb which has the keyboard connected to it. The keyboard and port extender inside the c128 case is powered through the interface cable that is connected to the amiga 1000. There were a series of custom case mods that were available at the time for this. I have only ever seen 1 of these modified units for sale within the last 20 years, they are so extremely rare.
