Looks good, and maybe has a high chance of having mechanical switches?

Either that or something capacitive, these were the standard options back then (the board does look like it's from the mid-'80s or so).
Hardware in signatures clutters Google search results. There should be a field in the profile for that (again).

This message was probably typed on a vintage G80-3000 with blues. Double-shots, baby. :D

Sexy colour scheme. Reminds me of those Dolch Portable keyboards that sometimes pop up. I really want one of those.

Wow! I love that blue, the combo with the black and grey is stunning!

If it's an old terminal keyboard, then it's probably linear.
