From the 5155 Portable PC, although its listed as a 5150.
Don't see many of these.

That's the first model of keyboard I ever typed on! I still remember the Portable PC it came with.

Shame it doesn't ship to the UK :( .

Do those have metal top panels?

From the US Constitution, Article 1, Section 8 :

The   Congress   shall have Power
To declare War,  grant Letters of Marque and Reprisal, and make Rules concerning Captures on Land and Water;
To provide for calling forth the Militia  to execute the Laws of the Union, suppress Insurrections and repel Invasions;

Not as far as I can remember. Then again, it's been twenty years or so since I used that xD .

The beige cover is plastic, while the top cover appears to be plastic.
