Gotta love those SA caps!

I was given this Memorex 2051 Terminal Keyboard around 2 years ago by some old man we knew. I didn't think much about it at the time, but it came to me to post it to r/Mechanicalkeyboards which led to people being quite curious and it ended up on KBD.news (https://kbd.news/Memorex-2051-1173.html ...
