Description[edit | edit source]

This 102-key keyboard is AT/XT switchable and uses the clicky Oki Gourd Spring "spring over membrane" switch. The Oki Gourd Spring switch is quite unusual in that the mechanism is minimalistsic consisting of only one unique spring in the housing with no other parts resulting in a very smooth keyfeel. The keycaps are PBT - polybutylene terephthalate with dye sublimation priting. Unfortunately the keyboard case is not very sturdy with flex and squeaking noises. Like many keyboards of this time the bottom edge of the case is slanted downward for a more ergonomic experience. This keyboard uses a standard five-pin DIN connector.
