Northgate Omnikey 101 "for parts" SOLD

Not a "Great" find but a good one.

Keyboard needs some work, but this is a phenomenal chassis if you want to transplant your preferred Alps into it.

Quite right you are! Thank you

I have seen people asking: "What is the best chassis for Alps?" since so many of the originals came in poor-quality cases.

This, in my opinion, is the best option with a stiff heavy back and high-quality components throughout. Plus it is straight ANSI style with no drama.
