IDENTIFY THE KEYBOARD thread

[Nuum]

I think, IvanIvanovich had one of these or something very similar and it was a very specially numbered POS G80. I can' find his thread about it, though.

Have a look there:

Can anyone identify this keyboard?

Can anyone identify this keyboard?

The keycaps look extremely Key Tronic, but I don't recognise the switch Oo .

PCB-trace based magnetic valve. Same as my NCR K430.

If you're not interested, let me know and I'll pick it up. Repairing these boards is one of my specialties.

[Laylie]

Got this in a sms from an older lady, no markings and she could only identify 1987 on the back

Hi, I was scrambling through a webshop for used goods, when I stumbled upon this keyboard. I couldn't find any information about this specific keyboard online.
Does anyone know anything about this keyboard? Is it another boring rubber dome, or does it use the fujitsu switches?
thanks for any help you can give me, I appreciate it!

Judging from small media buttons on the upper row and age I would naturally think its a rubber dome indeed.

rubberdome

[y11971alex]

Hello?

[mike52787]

Hello?

looks alpsy to me

[emdude]

Hello?

BTC keyboard, so some BTC switch. Foam and foil or rubberdome, probably.

EDIT: It's in the wiki, foam-and-foil: [wiki]BTC_5060[/wiki]

Is this the original Chicony KB 7903?

That spacebar

[thebluefox]

Exactly!

[Kouni]

Hi guys, any idea what's under there ?
Box says "Worldwide Information Systems Bull", AT connector.

[Nuum]

Most likely Cherry MX Blacks, the keycaps look like Cherry profile.

[Kouni]

I thought they might be, but that layout is weird and I couldn't be sure.

[Laylie]

Have anyone seen this one before?

[y11971alex]

　It's a Greek language board!

The wavy shape suggests that it's comparatively recent, as do the Windows keys. The large recess on the capslock button might, as a guess, indicate that it's a poorly stabilized switch.

[chzel]

Yeap, Greeks, can confirm, but Laylie already knows that (with the apparetly common issue with the ς). The keyborad itself is most likely rubber dome though.

Edit: Just saw this on the PC, the badge is from Quest, it is a company that sells assembled systems branded with their logo, and usually built to budget (They still exist but with a very limited market share). It's almost 100% RD...

[thebluefox]

Rubberdome, most likely a Mitsumi.

[Chyros]

Rubberdome, most likely a Mitsumi.

It is, Mitsumi hybrid switches, probably the tactile ones.

It's a quite common board, but haven't seen a Greek one yet.

[thebluefox]

I also have one with linear (spring) switch.

[Laylie]

Yeah indeed greek language. Ty about the info on brand never heard about this one

[marijan]

Hi, Deskthorians.
Does anyone have an idea what the keyboard in this old thing could be?
It's an old Philips P2000C portable computer that I have a chance of buying. However, I do not have the space for it and would mostly be interested in the keyboard, if it could be of any use in more modern systems (and if it is any good).

Here is the (much better) image I found online at http://www.computinghistory.org.uk/det/ ... 00C-P2012/


Edit:
Here is an even better photo of the keyboard.

This is taken from the thread at http://stardot.org.uk/forums/viewtopic.php?f=45&t=9566
I have read through all posts, but the only relevant piece of information seems to be authors response on cleaning solution used to clean the keys:

@Mark - Armor All "Low Gloss" but I imagine the shiny stuff will do just as well. I am using it because the design of the Philips keys has a tube that fits over the shaft that rubs on the switch housing when you press it. ...

I hope this helps in identification

Edit:
I seem to be slowly answering my own questions
So far I know that the connector is 6-pole DIN 45 322 (240°)

Edit:
I found the service manual at https://archive.org/stream/P2000CSystem ... 0/mode/2up
Spare parts listing shows this for what I think could be key switches:
DESCR. CODE NUMBER SERVICE NUMBER
Switch LP Assy (92 OFF) 5112 291 43290 * 5103 109 30340
Switch LE Assy (2 OFF) 5112 291 42910 * 5103 109 30350
