I've been disappointed with various (not ARM) boards that "claim" to have ... VGA output

RPi doesn't even claim to do VGA.

... allow the use of a VGA adapter to attach a "standard" monitor

As I hinted before, I think VGA is now in decline on "standard" monitors - they're all (going) digital these days.

If (like me) you still only have VGA monitors, then you will need a converter (not just a pinout adaptor) for RPi.

I don't recall that any of them supported PS/2 keyboards.

Have you tried to buy a PS/2 keyboard lately?!

PS/2 connectors (like RS232) are long-gone on laptops.
