Looks to be decent condition. No Silver Square Label though.

Lol.. You have no idea how quickly I clicked that link.

Yeah, it's just an M122. I suggest you change the topic title to avoid giving people heartattacks.

Ah , I thought it was unreasonably cheap for a unsaver. Ah well, still a nice board by the looks of it.

I was expecting it to be the honeywell "unsaver" which is nicely enough constructed but still a rubber dome and you can snag for less than $33 when they show up.

Lol, the layout of the 122 is completely different. I guess I just saw the top bit and assumed Unsaver :P

I am tempted to bid, simply because "$18.79 International Priority Shipping to Australia" is the lowest price for shipping a keyboard I have ever seen, especially for something this large!

Yeah, shipping is always painful outside the states.

The nickname for those boards were "Aircraft Carriers" actually.  It is actually appropriate, even at the time.
