found an old cherry keyboard...

[aricube]

...and I'm wondering if there's anyway to get this up and running. After 'typing' on it, without it even attached, I don't want to touch my old keyboard again. It has a connector I'm not familiar with, looks just like a phone line. There's a 25 pin adapter attached to it, if it would be easier to set up a daisy connection. Not sure I really want to bite the bullet just yet, and buy a newer keyboard(although, I did look around, and the SS 6gv2 seems to have the same switches, and it's 80 + free shipping at amazon.

What the identifying marks on the tag are, because I don't think you'll be able to read the pic(things in parents are symbols):

It is a "H" model, so do it had doubleshot keycaps?
If so then better sell the keyboard/keycaps and fund a new keyboard.

Weird layout. Huge spacebar and what's that key next to it?

I swear I seen someone selling one of those giant spacebars in the classifieds section. Thing is hideous haha

Picture of full board seems to be a Wyse / Link / Reynolds /etc. terminal board. The legends on the keycaps are absolutely not Cherry and also match those of a Wyse / Link / Reynolds / random terminal brand board. Key left of space says Compose Character.
