At least three different Dell SK-1000REW variants
« on: Wed, 22 May 2013, 07:20:38 »
There seem to be at least three variants of the Dell SK-1000REW keyboard. Probably most SK-1000REW boards have QuietKey printed to the right of the Dell logo. (Some don't though.)

If anyone's going to post about how much they love/hate the SK-1000REW it might be worth specifying which variant you mean. :)

They can be distinguished by the FCC IDs:
GYUR26SK   FCC date 1996-09-23
GYUR43SK   FCC date 1997-06-18
GYUR57SK   FCC date 1998-04-24

A GYUR26SK is shown at http://www2s.biglobe.ne.jp/~duelist/sk-1000rew/index.htm. The keys don't have sliders which separate from the key caps.

A GYUR43SK is pictured at http://www.ebay.com/itm/160996451439.

GYUR57SK pictured at http://www.recycledgoods.com/product/19109_dell_1435c_ps/2-keyboard-104-key-%28gyur43sk%29-sk-1000rew

An SK-1000REW with sliders separate from the key caps is shown in this thread:

But the specific FCC ID of that keyboard isn't given.

Does anyone here have a GYUR43SK or GYUR57SK SK-1000REW board? Would you be able to take a key off and post a picture?

The earlier models are way better than the 1000s
"Starting in 2011, the deficits again started to shrink. During Obama’s term  the deficit was reduced by $900 Billion  before finally in 2015 the GOP managed to wrangle a “reconciliation” bill out of Obama where he again cut corporate taxes, as well as made permanent some of George W. Bush’s original tax cuts. This is the year everything reversed. Before this, under Clinton, Bush and Obama the deficit in almost every year was gradually decreasing. The balance we had of taxes and the economy was bringing the deficit down, the money coming in was slowly catching up with the money going out until 2015. Trump’s subsequent tax cut has continued the new trend even after the rest of Bush’s cuts have since expired. Obama had an average GDP of 2.3%, with 11.6 million jobs created and unemployment peaking at 10% in 2009, then falling to 4.3% in 2016. If we had continued on that downward deficit track, we would have again reached balance and another surplus in 2017-2018.

Attached is a photo of a GYUR43SK.  It's a rubber dome, and in spite of the tall glider / spill protector the keys are quite loose and can be rocked 1-1.5mm side to side.  The dome itself is lying loose inside the glider, and has a slightly non-linear response, but not much.  It's vewy wubbewy, not wecommended.

For the record, GYUR10SK (FCC date 1993-04-16; winkeyless, thus SK-1000RE) has individual pieces of rubber dome, while GYUR26SK already has one rubber dome sheet. Both were made in Malaysia.
