It looks a bit like the Sun 7 rubber dome parts. Which I think, if you can deal with the mushiness, it's a good keyboard.

If you press the Coffee button what happens?  Does it wake up the PC or give you the runs?


If the coffe button really works I'll left the mech wagon quickly :biggrin:

The construction looks pretty Fujitsu-ish... didn't they make those Sun 'boards anyway?
Hardware in signatures clutters Google search results. There should be a field in the profile for that (again).

I have a type 4 (built in US) US keymap with the right international enter, and is a reversed rubber dome.

And a type 6 (made in Malaysia) US keymap with the wrong American enter, which seem a plain rubber dome, but has nothing to do with the KB shown in the photo.

Anyway the are both nice looking, but crap keyboards.

I agree with that it looks like a Fujitsu rubber dome keyboard -- the slider, the look of the rubber dome and the right border.
The Fujitsu FKB8811 matches what you can see in the image, but perhaps there are other keyboards that do too.

I am sure they did. The sliders and key caps are interchangeable between my Sun Type 5c and
Fujitsu FKB8738
and the rubber dome sheets look similar too. The key caps on the Sun keyboard are of better quality: thicker, pad printed and sharper edges. Unfortunately, the keys on the bottom row are a different size.

What's wrong with being made in Malaysia?

They make good quality stuff in China, and low quality imitation stuff too. I don't see you complaining about that
