Doesn't have Terminal Keycaps interestingly enough and the part number apparently is a regular SDL PS/2 one, so I think it is just mis-titled.  I am guessing since the cable doesn't come with it that the SDL Jack just confused the seller.  Should make it sell for more.

Thanks for pointing that out.  I hadn't really looked closely at the caps until you mentioned it.  It's pretty uncommon to see these new in the box, so it will be interesting to see what it ends up selling for.

I wonder if someone has messaged the seller and asked for a picture of the back of it where the sdl connector would be?  That would seal the deal on if it's the real deal or not.

You're right, a picture of the back would be nice. 

At least the part number in the listing and the one shown on the box matches a known non-terminal SSK p/n.

And we know how that trick can be played on ebay.  >:D

Wow, it went for just over $300 including the shipping.   65 bids from a decent pool of bidders.

Wow, that's pretty high for a keyboard that was only listed as a terminal.  I wonder if it really was a ps2 without the sdl?
