I like how compact the AT layout is. Too bad it's so awkward when you actually try to use it.

Nice find! Too bad I can't stand the BAE key, cool board otherwise.

Wow, that's cheap for a solid set of switches.

That box reminded me of back in the day when every computer store had some sort of generic clicky keyboard on sale for $25.

You mean to look at it, or to use it? I agree, they're not the most beautiful idea, but I've never found them any different for typing. They do usually have one, or ever two, stabilizers.

What a pretty keyboard! I'd get it if I could, since NOS vintage stuff is always amazing. <3 I've got some green Alps that came from a board that was NOS and they're fantastic.

 Does anyone know if the keycaps are pad-printed or dye sublimated on these keyboards? After a quick google I ruled out doubleshot...

I was surprised it sold for such a good price
