The Cherry G81-1236 is a special version of the G81-1000 keyboard made by Cherry for Goupil.

Introduction[edit | edit source]

This keyboard is notable for its "Industrial" color scheme, unique among Cherry keyboards, but possibly inspired by IBM's Industrial Model M. The case is a greenish black color. The keycaps are thick double shots which are darker than the standard Cherry white color, with a creamy tint. The Russian legends are pad-printed in a carrot red color, instead of the standard deep red. The keyboard uses MY switches with the old style M-shape sliders.
