Would certainly suck to ship that.. I bet it weighs as much as a small cow...
Looks pretty rad though once you clean her up a bit!

It's 13lbs.
Soarer, you know if your keyboard converter doesn't work I'm going to want my money back right? :-)
In all seriousness, the keys are mechanical but not a kind I recognize.
The keycaps are pretty :-)

What switches? I assume the trackball would be cool if the connector/protocol were usable.
In other words: It's awesome! I'd easily pay the $1 just for the privilege of taking it apart.

Any keyboard that makes a Model F-122 look wimpy and lightweight has got to be bad-ass for sure.
I know that we would all love to see the insides of the thing. Great keys in any case.
You have the beginnings of a monumental retro rig.

Michael Wolff says he urged Epstein to release information he had on Trump, but Epstein appeared worried about what Trump would do to him.
Epstein told him, “I may be a pervert, but I’m not crazy.” Epstein continued, "Trump is a man without any scruples.”

It's a keyboard for an ultrasound machine.

Those are rotary encoders and a trackball on the right...
Looking for ideas :-)
Would make a, mean video editing rig.
