AT keyboard for Sanyo MBC-555 PC [ENDED]
« on: Sun, 11 December 2016, 01:26:57 »
"Sanyo MBC-555 *RARE* Vintage Keyboard *Fully Tested & Works Perfectly*"








BIN $72.50, incl. U.S. shipping. (The computer's not included.)

I don't know how much of a "great find" this is—but I've never seen one, and it looks cool to me. Anyone know what kind of switches it'd have?

And while Wikipedia says the MBC-555 was an early PC-compatible, where's ALT, and what's with GRAPH? And what an Enter key!!

I now see a post from someone on DT about this auction, and they mention it has Fujitsu Leaf Springs.

DT wiki: "Linear, extremely smooth [even when dirty]. Much heavier than the later generation switches. One of the best examples of well designed linear switches." Sounds cool.
