Title: Soviet NIB keyboard $5 BIN

Iz byootiful technology! Not completely sure what switches it uses, though the seller says it's IBM so it would be BS in that case. Doesn't appear to come with a case or even a collector, but quite make a handsome piece of decoration if anything! :)

Lots of sellers say "IBM keyboard" when they mean "PC keyboard".

Looks like something off an MSX or from that era, likely nothing special.

I posted this awhile back asking about the switches, and I think the consensus was that these are probably Fujitsu reed switches. Nothing special unfortunately.
