Northgate Omnikey 101 "for parts" SOLD

Not a "Great" find but a good one.

Keyboard needs some work, but this is a phenomenal chassis if you want to transplant your preferred Alps into it.

Citizens United violates the essence of what made America a great country in its political system. Now it’s just an oligarchy, with unlimited political bribery being the essence of getting the nominations for president or to elect the president.
So now we’ve just seen a complete subversion of our political system as a payoff to major contributors, who want and expect and sometimes get favors for themselves after the election’s over.”

Quite right you are! Thank you

I have seen people asking: "What is the best chassis for Alps?" since so many of the originals came in poor-quality cases.

This, in my opinion, is the best option with a stiff heavy back and high-quality components throughout. Plus it is straight ANSI style with no drama.
