QUBIE' ENHANCED KEYBOARD model ff5161
« on: Sat, 08 October 2011, 08:53:14 »
I was looking through an old issue of Byte Magazine and came across this keyboard "QUBIE' ENHANCED KEYBOARD model ff5161" in one of their ads.  The keyboard is designed very closely after the original IBM PC XT keyboard, but has a key layout more like an IBM Model M.  Its case still has the same shape as the original IBM PC/XT board too.  I have attached an image from the magazine for reference.  

I was wondering if anyone had ever come across one of these, and more importantly, does anybody have one for sale?

I think I saw one of these in a bank somewhere...
If you live in AZ you can try my keyboards. I usually keep plenty of different ALPS and MX and buckling springs.
