Title: Selling my Northgate Omnikey 101 on Ebay!
Post by: cholo on Mon, 16 April 2012, 20:51:53

Hey all,

Selling my Northgate Omnikey on Ebay. Everything about it works. No broken stabilizers, no keys that stick or repeat, retractable feet on the bottom in good condition. Double shot keys, white alps switches, steel on steel construction, what's not to like?

I like this keyboard, but the white alps switches fatigue my hands and I have a rosewill rk-9000 with cherry blues that I use on the daily, so the Northgate is getting sold!

All this being said, it's old. 20 years old. My dad bought it in 1992 for $86.00 (lol). I found the original receipt. It's seen its fair share of use, so there are a few cosmetic things like yellowing of some of the letter keys.

Check out the auction and see for yourself. If you have any questions or want more pics of anything feel free to message me and I'll try to respond promptly. Ebay is the best way to contact me as I check that more than here.

Thanks!

That keyboard isn't for me, but something like that from my father? I'd never sell it....
