Title: Terminal keyboard from "Revenge of the nerds"
Post by: mougrim on Sun, 08 June 2014, 11:30:09: Well... Anyone seen that movie? There are that scene when Gilbers hacks his way into Judy life (and pants, probably).

Anyone knows what terminals they hav in the lab? And, especially, what keyboards? It had such a nice sound...

I could not find that type any where... but I have a nagging feeling that I have seen that exact case design from another brand.

That one is quite different. Different case, different stepping on Caps Lock, space between numeric row and F-row, and different legend on the Enter key.

I wonder if those internal stabilizer rings added to the friction more than the smooth gliddedness of the travel.. hrrrmm.

Serious necroposting, but ... I happened to stumble upon the anser by having saved a screenshot from the movie and of the keyboard into the same directory, browsing randomly and getting a "Whoa" moment.
I figured that I had the screenshot because someone had asked about the keyboard.

The keyboard is from an Otrona Attache (https://deskthority.net/viewtopic.php?f=62&t=12903) "luggable" computer.
The orange hook on the back of the keyboard is for attaching to the computer's front, and hinges to close it.
The switches are Fujitsu Leaf Spring gen 1 (https://deskthority.net/wiki/Fujitsu_Leaf_Spring).
