Sun Type 7 is a USB keyboard. It looks a lot like the Sun Type 5. But it's way flimsier and the keys feel way worse.
I'd be after a Sun Type 5 with an aftermarket USB adapter.

In my opinion, the Sun Type 7 is light and flimsy. yes, but the key feel is not mushy like on the Type 5.
I'd use a Type 7 every day (and I did for months at work) over a Type 5.

Yeeeah, I do own a Type 5, but I have no cable nor converter for it
