Title: Potential Fujitsu Leaf Keyboard $50 current bid + shipping
Post by: nubbinator on Wed, 19 November 2014, 22:58:15

Based on the "tombstone" caps, it could be a Fujitsu, though I have seen some rubber domes with that cap shape.  In either case, it's a cool looking old board.  I think it's been listed a few times, so it may eventually go cheaper.

Link to the rubber dome please?

Definitely a Fujitsu keyboard. Later Fujitsu keyboards with this keycap shape used Peerless switches, for which the reviews I’ve seen are kinda uninspiring, but those aren’t exactly standard rubber domes.
