I thought this was pretty cool:

IDT Industrial Data Terminals Corp. Vintage Mechanical Keyboard Metal Case











Just that engraved plate over the keys gets my geek thing going.

They usually are—but unless the same model has been examined, one never knows. I looked around for more info but couldn't find any.

In addition to the unique custom identifier—which, to me, looks like something out of an old s/f movie—I love the case's shape (Space Age!), and of course the keys are beautiful. Being married complicates things, though. Oh well.
