Title: Olivetti keyboard
Post by: manna on Tue, 18 October 2016, 14:20:24

Hello everyone!

I found an Olivetti keyboard on eBay, model ANK 26-102 : http://www.ebay.it/itm/222261048789?euid=977614009cff47f7ba1236301c71f282&bu=43366070468&cp=1&sojTags=bu=bu
Is it worth 25 euro shipped, given that there's no cable (looks like it uses a sdl like the model m), and therefore the seller cannot test it?


Thanks.

It's a slider over dome keyboard, not a bad one but surely not the greatest either. It uses a sort of RJ45 plug for the cable, so you can't just use any cable.
Unless you really wanna own this particular keyboard, I would suggest against buying it.

Thanks. I'll wait and see if I can find another Olivetti for a cheaper price.
