I'm pretty new to electronics but I want to learn and I'm still busy getting to the basics. I'm busy doing a project at home, but I need some kind of remote control for the pc. I was thinking of an IR remote control, but I'll maybe do that later. What I Basically want to build, is some kind of circuit with a few press buttons, this circuit is then connected to the serial port on my pc. Depending on which button you press it sends a certain signal(bit ?) to the serial port. The programming part on the pc, receiving the signal I'll prob be able to do, but the circuit is something which I don't know how to do...
Any ideas ?
