I know some of you like odd Model Ms, so here's a random brand one with a unique case I haven't seen before

Ah yes, the Ambra.  It was IBM's brand of consumer computers that never caught on.  I'm surprised that's a real clicky M.  I thought it would be the rubber dome type. 

Cool find and a good deal if it's a real M.  Wouldn't be much different than the blue label IBM M I'm typing on right now.
