Unicomp Terminal Emulator Keyboard?
« on: Thu, 26 July 2012, 02:08:21 »
http://www.ebay.com/itm/Unicomp-Terminal-Emulator-PS2-Keyboard-New-AK278AA-ABA-/370626955502?pt=PCA_Mice_Trackballs&hash=item564b1688ee#ht_1772wt_1120


Found this ebay auction somewhat odd. They're very cheap. Maybe it's a great deal or maybe it's too good to be true. I am not sure.

$29 BIN with free shipping to boot.

Seems legit, these things are not desirable outside of a small circle of geekhackers and the like.  FWIW, I suspect that these may exist in rubber dome as well as buckling spring versions.  At least, I recently visited a Holland & Barrett shop (famed for their use of Unicomp keyboards) and saw a board like that but it didn't have the familiar click.

Thanks for telling us.

Otherwise, it is almost worth buying just for the clean fresh keys and springs.

“All the powers of government, legislative, executive, and judiciary, result to the legislative body. The concentrating of these in the same hands, is precisely the definition of despotic government. An ELECTIVE DESPOTISM was not the government we fought for; but one .... in which the powers of government should be so divided and balanced among several bodies of magistracy, as that no one could transcend their legal limits, without being effectually checked and restrained by the others.” — Thomas Jefferson, commentary on Federalist 48

I asked, and was told the opposite. I also asked Unicomp directly and they weren't sure.

Go figure, I guess no-one knows.
