Help me identify this please :)
« on: Thu, 05 June 2014, 07:31:26 »
Hey guys I'm relatively new to this forum and would like to see if anyone can confirm if this is a keyboard of value or worth picking up for the quoted 20 bucks?
Im a keyboard noob but I do know that the old model m's are rockin' boards so can anyone help me with this

That's an interesting board... 5.75x spacebar!

I suspect it's a rubber dome, though, and not buckling spring.
Buying more keycaps,
it really hacks my wallet,
but I must have them.

Looks like an IBM KB-8923, which uses rubberdome.
