Ah! Good info to know. Thanks!

--- Quote from: Nonmouse ---There's a similar Cherry keyboard on ebay right now (ends tomorrow) that's up to $365.  It's an MX-5000, with brown (reduced-force tactile) sliders.  I put it on my watch list when it popped up, with an opening bid of 24.99, but I don't want it $400 worth...

Check out the first bidder [or second], I hoped no one would catch it.

Is there any kind of indication as to what kinds of keyswitches are used in the keyboards?

Should be brown Cherries.

AFAIK, it was one of the first such keyboards ever made (1994?).  I think they dropped the model very quickly.  BTW, BTC copied the layout of the M15, but it has a membrane, and is not adjustible:

There is also one without a touchpad, and a split version:

The split one is impossible to find.
