/* This is my first project with the mbed. I have just collected libraries together
    and came up with the mash up below. The keyboard input is received by both the
    terminal and the LCD connected to the mbed.
    the PS/2 wiring is as follows
   ====p22 clock, white===========
   ====p21 signal, green==========
   ====yellow, orange +/- voltage=
