Title: [SOLD] Black Unicomp Model M, GE logos, looks NIB, $60 shipped
Post by: ander on Thu, 05 October 2017, 18:50:38: I love these boards, and it's taking much will power to tell you guys about this one rather than buying it myself (I already have this p/n, tho, dang!):

IBM Model M GE General Electric Medical Systems 2015 PS/2 2054858-001

Seller says "used", but I think they're just assuming that because it's a couple of years old—it looks NIB to me.

I've seen relatively few of these GE-logo boards. They usually say "Marquette" or "Marquette, a div. of GE".

Buckling springs, wacky numpad, etc. Search GH for marquette for discussions of similar boards.

Cool, but it lacks the famous "Urine" key.

Of two minds whether I want such a key on my keyboard.

Pretty sure it was a yellow one, but can't swear to it.
