(I have very short time since i'm at work)
So, whilst wandering around at work i saw a NTC keyboard thrown away. it had clicky white alps, and strangest of all a Norwegian layout. It's FCC ID was: FM44Hkb621(can't make out if the last letter is 1 or I)
Just throwing it out here!

The FCC ID is going to start with FMA, which is Nan Tan/Clevo's grantee code. It sounds like the KB-6251 series:

FCC ID is probably FMA44HKB6251.

Saving it would result in me getting fired. I work at a recycling center(whom does research in enviromental friendly stuff etc, but they also take in trash.)

Wonder what their policy is on more obviously valuable items?

I just realised that "No layout" means "Norwegian layout" — I couldn't fathom how a Norwegian keyboard could lack any layout at all :-)

Weird that a recycling centre wouldn't sell stuff.. The one that is local to me does save and sell off working equipment. They even have a shelf of vintage computing equipment that they consider too valuable to trash or sell.

A sure sign that they are good, nerdy, people.
