Looks to be in good condition, nice way to try out NMB HiTek switches.

... What is a hitek switch?

I only know of space invaders and the right touch rubber domes.

Proper name for "space invaders". J/K, just another name they go by.

What's the HiTek part?

If someone has one I'm looking for RipOmeter (http://geekhack.org/showwiki.php?title=Island:6189) numbers.

Not particularly sure where the HiTek comes from, but I've seen it associated with NMB and I recall it being embossed on some of their switch products.

I just found one at goodwill for $2 it was pretty dirty though and I wasn't a fan of the switches so I did not purchase it.

I disected it in the store laying on a bed. It must have looked awkward.
