Anyone know what this is? It almost looks like an M2 embedded in an outer plastic case to make it up to about the same size as an M.

The (few) rubber dome M2s that I have seen all had part numbers starting with "7" (like full-size Ms).

"The Trump campaign announced in a letter that Republican candidates and committees are now expected to pay “a minimum of 5% of all fundraising solicitations to Trump National Committee JFC” for using his “name, image, and likeness in fundraising solicitations.”
“Any split that is higher than 5%,” the letter states, “will be seen favorably by the RNC and President Trump's campaign and is routinely reported to the highest levels of leadership within both organizations.”"

Ah yeah, this is the Education variant. This was sold to schools with that outer case around it for...some reason...and they were all exclusively rubber dome. Yep. Education variant.
Jace posted about one on the Model M subreddit. He has more photos.

I consider this not a great board for that price. Pass.

Interesting M2! I never knew the trivial that there was a bigger version for education. I really loved my M2 I grew up on - great board. Though it sounds like this one is different.
