Post by: rowdy on Fri, 10 January 2014, 18:54:49: Looks like VT220 keyboard to me, although the terminal looks more like VT420, maybe with a filter on the front.

Post by: IvanIvanovich on Fri, 10 January 2014, 19:46:18: Yeah it's probably a DEC LK/VTwhatever keyboard. Cherry G80-0535 and G80-130* models were basically just deluxe keyboard upgrades with the exact same layout.

Those fatty arrows on my French keyboard actually belong to a 1300.

Post by: PRISONER 24601 on Tue, 04 February 2014, 23:21:52: Looks like an old Texas Instruments terminal board. Those things are beastly, and came with some of the best very early tactile (and linear) ALPS.

Post by: Daniel Beardsmore on Wed, 05 February 2014, 15:57:41: They're all DEC LK201 clones. The one in the video looks a lot like an actual LK201 including the blank function keys and legend strip.

I felt sure I saw an NMB clone of the DEC LK201 on some Chinese site, but I forgot to bookmark it or save the images.

I created a wiki category for these keyboards, but I've not found many since then:

http://deskthority.net/wiki/Category:Clones_of_the_DEC_LK201

Feel free to add wiki pages for additional clones and pop them in that category.

Lots of keyboards have those fat arrows, including the Monterey K101/K102 blue Alps keyboard.
