Title: SORD M243EX - Orange Cherry
Post by: rvrebel on Thu, 19 January 2012, 17:08:44

Stumbled on this one and thought it was pretty interesting. Not sure what I'm going to do with it but thought I would share.

First off it's the heaviest keyboard I have held. I need to reweigh it because I already forgot but I think around 6lb. The steel case (back) I'm sure accounts for half of that.

Orange Cherry (Linear). Posts are smaller (as you would expect if you read the wiki!).

Cherry Orange would make a good ice cream flavor. :)

I should hunt around in the piles and see if he still has it next time I visit... wonder if it used Cherry too?
